Safety means keeping ourselves safe from harm. We must follow safety rules every day.
There are safety rules for the road, for home, and for school. These rules help us stay safe and healthy.
Let us learn the important safety rules!
Roads can be dangerous. We must follow these rules:
Always walk on the footpath. Cross the road only at a zebra crossing. Look left, then right, then left again before crossing. Obey traffic lights — red means stop, green means go, yellow means wait. Never run on the road. Always hold an adult's hand when crossing.
Our home can also have dangers. Follow these rules:
Do not touch electrical switches with wet hands. Do not play with fire or matchsticks. Do not touch sharp knives or scissors without an adult. Do not lean out of windows. Do not open the door to strangers when alone at home. Tell an adult if you see something dangerous.
We must also be safe at school:
Walk, do not run, in the corridors. Do not push or shove other children. Use the staircase carefully — hold the railing. Do not throw things in the classroom. Listen to your teacher's instructions. Tell your teacher if someone is hurt.
A stranger is someone we do not know. We must be careful with strangers.
Never go anywhere with a stranger. Never take food, gifts, or money from a stranger. If a stranger makes you feel scared, shout loudly and run to a trusted adult. Always tell your parents or teacher if a stranger talks to you.

Ravi always looks both ways before crossing the road. "Left, right, left — then cross!" This keeps him safe.
