Morning Safety Town Session 3: 7/18-7/22

About Camp

For incoming Young 5, Kindergarten or First Grade Students.Safety Town is one of Rec & Ed's most popular summer educational programs. Your child learns safety awareness in a fun and entertaining way using a child-sized mock Ann Arbor "town" explored on bikes. Children learn how to distinguish the difference between safe and unsafe when confronted with potentially dangerous situations. Some of our guest speakers include police officers, firefighters, "Louie the Lightning Bug", and water safety specialists. Songs, games, stories and art projects reinforce the lessons about:Bike and vehicle safetyFire and electricity safetySchool bus passenger safetyWater and pedestrian safetyAnd more!Safety Town is even more fun with Fall 2022 classmates! We try to place children with others attending their school. This gives them a chance to meet students from their class before school begins this fall. We also make every effort to place students with friends as long as a special request is included when you register.Parents will receive an email from ePACT following registration. This is where all medical information and other questions MUST be filled out.Will your child benefit from extra support? Let us know so that everyone succeeds!

My son (5) had a blast and learned so much. We are still talking about it this week. Many important lessons learned. Thank you for offering this!”“Our son really enjoyed Safety Town and was glowing each time we picked him up. Without being in the environment myself, I can tell it was high energy with a strong ethic of care for children and their safety. It made learning about safety fun!”“Louie the Lightning Bug was a hit! She also talked about each activity and rules she learned which was great after every session. We thank you for sending home the booklets/crafts/information as it is a great prompt for talking about her learning and also as a resource for our family. Wonderful presenters and curriculum!!”
