SAFETY TIPS WHEN YOU ARE HOME ALONE
It is ok that sometimes you are at home without your parents or a baby-sitter, just remember these important safety tips!
Always keep the doors locked. If someone knocks on your door never answer it.
If you hear strange noises outside don't go look to see what it is. Someone might be trying to trick you to open the door.
If you answer the phone and it's for your parents don't tell anyone that they aren't home. Some things you can say are:
- They're too busy to come to the phone right now.
- Or my mom is in the shower right now.
It may be tempting but don't even tell your friends or kids at school that you are going to be home alone, you never know who might be listening!
Make sure that emergency contact numbers are near every phone in you house:
- Cell Phone
- Neighbours
- Mom or dad at work
- Other family members close by
- And 911 for emergencies
