THE "WHAT IF" GAME |
|
As
seen on the Oregon Police Clearing House Site
Try playing the "what if' game with your children. This may help your child think about what they will do and how they will react in different circumstances. HERE
ARE SOME IDEAS TO START WITH:  What if our family goes
to the mall and all of a sudden you turn around and you can't see
us anywhere?What if you are playing
at the playground and a man comes up to you and says, "Your mom
was in an accident and I'm supposed to take you to see her at the
hospital."?What if you are on your
way home from school and your friends want to go to the mall? You're
suppose to go straight home and stay there until your mom and dad
get home from work. What would you do?What if you went with
your friends to the store and while you were there your friends took
some candy without paying for it?What if you are at the
movies and you go into the bathroom and somebody touches you in a
place where they shouldn't?What if you're camping
and you ride your bike on a trail and can't find your way back to
camp?What if you are on your
way home and a car slows down and the person inside the car asks you
for directions?What if a stranger tries
to pull you into their car?What if you are home
alone and someone asks if they can talk to your parents? |
