Ironia Elementary School – Stranger Danger Safety Tips
1. Don’t approach a motor vehicle for someone asking directions.
2. If a stranger asks you for help, wants to give you something or asks you to keep a “special secret,” say NO, move away and tell a trusted adult.
3. If you feel scared or uncomfortable, get away from the situation. Run away and go to a safe place.
4. Always stay with friends. It’s always safer to play in a group.
5. Always ask your parents or your teacher for permission to go somewhere.
