When sledding on a hill, make sure the land at the bottom is safe. It should be either fenced in so a sled won’t go into the street or have plenty of space to stop without entering the street. It should also be free of trees and other obstacles since an out of control sled could slam into them causing serious bodily injury.

Make sure kids do not create makeshift jumps or ramps when sledding. Kids have broken bones, become paralyzed, or died from landing wrong.

Sledding accidents do happen. They can cause severe life changing injuries. Helmets have now become standard equipment for sports and sledding.

Most failed child abductions were unsuccessful because the child recognized a bad situation and got away, avoided, or scream and kicked to draw attention.

National Center for Missing & Exploited Children say most abductions occur when a kid is alone, usually in late afternoon or early evening.

Over 70% of child abduction attempts were directed at girls.

Older children tend to be kidnapping targets because they tend to be less supervised. Encourage your children to always travel with a group.

Kids targeted in abduction attempts are often preteens and teens in middle grades. Kids must be aware and run and scream if an attempt is made.
