Description
Road casualty data shows that the number of child pedestrian casualties doubles between the ages of 9 and 11, with incidents more likely to happen during drop-off and pick up times.
This free, printable activity sheet helps parents prepare their children for more independent travel, especially as they start thinking about the move to secondary school. The sheet includes simple tips for parents to share on practice journeys and an interactive Safe Adventures quiz for children.

We’ve also teamed up with The National College to launch a new guide for parents and educators, designed to help children build essential road safety skills as they gain independence. Get the resource here.
Our Tales of the Road resource remains a key tool for empowering children with the knowledge to stay safe and is especially useful as they transition to more independent travel. A print-friendly version of the booklet is also available, condensed for easy use but packed with the same helpful advice and information.
