Somebody help me to give answer this question?

List three ways Educators can assist children to learn simple safety rules?

I hope this might help you, but not sure....

Educate the children about Good habit Bad habit:
Take 20 pieces of paper and write down 10 good habits such as flossing each night, washing for 20 seconds or covering the mouth when cough and 10 bad habits. Fold all the pieces of paper and place them in a hat. The children can draw out one at a time and decide whether it’s a good hygiene habit or a bad hygiene habit.

Explain rules for safe play to children and implement them. Photographs are best way to show children where to play and how to follow the rules of safe play.

Glitter hands (fun way of teaching about hand wash):
Some children only rinse their hands quickly under water, if they wash at all. But hands should be scrubbed with an antibacterial soap for at least 15 to 20 seconds. Sprinkle glitter on a child’s hands and challenge him off to wash the glitter with soap and water. Because glitter is naturally sticky, it will take up to 30 seconds to scrub the glitter away. Then indicate that he should scrub off germs like he did the glitter each time that he washes. Washing hands can greatly reduce the spread of germs.

teach children to stay away from front and back of the safe area
play gently with no pushing
respect others, be fair, share and take turns
try not to spoil someone else's game
look out for little children......

This may useful to you... but not sure...

The most important thing regarding safety rules for kids is to learn about road safety. In most of the road accidents where children are involved, there are more chances of them being at fault rather than the vehicle driver. It is important to teach kids about the road safety rules, so that they will follow. Here is a post regarding road safety rules that every kid should aware of: http://www.momjunction.com/articles/imp ... n_0077932/
