Safety on the Playground

Safety on the Playground is one book in a series about safety. There are topics in this book such as what to wear, broken equipment, safety on swings, safety on slides, safety during games, strangers, and climbing safety. I think these topics are very mundane and boring for children. The topics are very specific and I think that children will get bored with this book. Though the topic of playground safety is very important, I think as teachers and parents, we should come up with a more interesting and creative way to introduce this topic.

I would not use this book or series in my classroom. I don't think that reading a boring and mundane book about safety will ensure that kids will follow all the rules. I think it would be more beneficial if the class came up with their own rules would make the children be more creative and more likely to follow their own rules that they made.
