Tattoo your kids for safety
Whenever I see field-tripping kids at the zoo or other event with giant name tags on, my stranger-danger alarm always goes off. After all, when an adult knows their name, kids are less likely to be cautious. Many schools now send their kids with tags that only contain the school name, or sometimes the kids wear school t-shirts, which also makes them easier to spot in a crowd.A mom of three developed an ingenious way for educators or parents to reconnect with wandering children, the Safety Tat. This temporary tattoo goes on the child's arm and includes a parent's cell phone number. If a child gets separated from their family, they can find the nearest helpful adult and be quickly located.
Think you're doing everything you can to keep your child safe on outings? Take this safety quiz to make sure.

What kids need is a locked necklace with a GPS and a triggerable audible alarm. Kid goes missing, hit the alarm, can't hear it? Call the cops give them your childs code and here comes the calvary.

Great idea - I had a similar one on our first trip to Disneyworld, I wrote our names and cell numbers on a mailing label each day and affixed it to the back of our son's shirt. A little more affordable that way, I think :)

When we go to festivals that put a band on our kids wrists we use a sharpie to write our name and cell number on it. You can buy these at office stores.
