Safety Sense for Elementary Age Children

Safety Sense for Children Ages: 6-11 (K-5th grade) | Length of Workshops: 45 minutes - 2 hours

Revved Up Kids Safety Sense for Children is designed to teach a frightening subject in an empowering way. We use age appropriate language that helps participants understand the seriousness of the subject matter and leaves them feeling strong, not scared. It is our firm belief that the easiest target for a predator is a child who doesn't know predators exist, and our training helps parents open this difficult dialogue with their children.

Revved Up Kids are SMART, STRONG and SAFE! Our training for young children in Kindergarten through fifth grade teaches children in an age appropriate way about unsafe people who may want to hurt or take them, and equips them to defend themselves and tell a trusted adult if they ever meet an unsafe person. We offer interactive workshop training from 45 minutes to 2 hours in length that includes the following components:

  • Be SMART Awareness training - understanding who predators are (dispel stranger-danger myth), recognizing an unsafe person (lies/lures/tricks), avoiding dangerous situations
  • Be STRONG Defense training - setting strong personal boundaries, using voice and body with power to deter a threat, responding to a physical attack with simple self-defense tactics (full-force practice included in workshop)
  • Be SAFE Reinforcement - Stresses the importance of disclosure to a trusted adult, provides follow up resources for parents to develop a comfortable and routine family safety dialogue.

Tuition for these workshops varies widely based upon program format and group size. Grant funding is available for groups serving economically disadvantaged populations.
