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.
