I can understand what to do if a stranger talks to me.
📖 Let Us Begin!
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!
Road 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.
Ravi always looks both ways before crossing the road. His mother taught him: "Left, right, left — then cross!" This keeps him safe.
Traffic Light Colour
What It Means
What We Do
🔴 Red
Stop
Stand still and wait
🟡 Yellow
Get ready / Wait
Do not cross yet — get ready
🟢 Green
Go
Cross the road safely
More Road Safety Rules:
Always use the footpath or pavement — never walk on the road.
Cross only at a zebra crossing or a pedestrian crossing.
Look left → right → left before crossing.
Never run across the road.
Hold an adult's hand when crossing a busy road.
Do not play on the road.
If there is no footpath, walk on the right side of the road facing traffic.
Safety at Home
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.
Danger at Home
Safety Rule
Electrical switches and sockets
Never touch with wet hands. Electricity and water are dangerous together.
Fire, matchsticks, candles
Never play with fire. Only adults should light matchsticks or candles.
Sharp objects (knives, scissors)
Keep away from children. Ask an adult for help.
Climbing on furniture
Do not climb on chairs, tables, or shelves — you may fall.
Medicines and cleaning liquids
Never touch or drink medicines without an adult's permission.
Strangers at the door
Do not open the door to strangers when alone at home.
Know your home address and your parents' phone numbers. If there is an emergency, you can call for help or tell someone where you live.
Safety at School
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.
Walk — do not run — in corridors and on stairs.
Do not push or shove classmates on the stairs or in the corridor.
Always hold the railing when going up or down stairs.
Listen carefully to your teacher's instructions.
Do not talk to strangers near the school gate.
Tell a teacher immediately if someone hurts you or makes you feel unsafe.
Do not bring sharp objects or dangerous things to school.
Wait for your parent or guardian at the school gate — do not leave alone.
Meena always holds the railing on the stairs. She knows that running on stairs can cause a bad fall. Safety first!
Stranger Danger
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.
Meena's mother told her: "If anyone you do not know asks you to come with them, say NO loudly and run to a safe place!"
Water Safety
Water can be dangerous too. Follow these rules near water:
Never swim alone — always have an adult with you.
Do not go near deep water (rivers, ponds, lakes) without an adult.
Do not play near wells, open drains, or flooded areas.
Learn to swim — it is an important life skill.
If someone falls into water, shout for help immediately — do not jump in unless you know how to swim.
Never push anyone near water.
Arjun's father took him to the swimming pool. He always swims with his father watching. He never goes near the deep end alone. Water safety keeps us alive!
