Why do children need identification?
Every parent has experienced the panic of not knowing where their
child is, if only for a minute. Each day children
wander off
in department stores, supermarkets, amusement parks, campgrounds, and even from their own backyards. Thankfully, most are
quickly recovered. But even with the best parental care, nearly 2100 children
a day, or almost
2 children a minute, are reported missing.
Keeping children safe involves a 2-step approach:
Education = Abduction Prevention
We cannot overemphasize the value of teaching your child non fear-based strategies they can use if faced with a
potential abduction or other threatening situation. Feel free to print out our free coloring book, safety tips, and safety quiz,
so you can discuss safety issues together. This knowledge will empower them and give them confidence to react quickly.
And remember, open communication is the best way to ensure that your child will tell you if something or someone’s
making them feel uneasy.
Products = Parental Peace of Mind
Many lost and abducted children can be recovered if their parents immediately provide police with a complete
record of identification. Parents should always be prepared by keeping updated records at home and away, just in case.
Our comprehensive child identification products-the ChildPrint ID Kit®, ChildPrint ID Card™,Safe Shoes Child
ID®, and Toothprints® have been evaluated, recommended, and distributed by law enforcement officers
nationwide. We hope
you’ll never have
to use them, but you’ll feel more secure knowing you have
your child’s information on hand if needed.
