Think First Programs

Little Convincer ProgramKids learn about car seat safety and about wearing bike helmets in this "Buckle Up" presentation for pre-school children. A simulated car seat w/seat belt system demonstrates to children the importance on being restrained and how seat belt "hugs" keep us safe! This program is ideal for ages 3,4 & 5 years. Children love being part of the "seat belt patrol" when they receive a sticker, coloring book and learn the new safety belt song!
