Even a few minutes of learning a week can make a great difference to our children’s safety and confidence all their lives long!
I want to thank everyone who responded so positively to our Back to School With Safety and Confidence post last week by using and sharing this information.
I also want to call your attention to this joyful “Got a Minute for Safety” MyGym Fitness video showing their instructors presenting Kidpower Safety Minutes to the kids in their classes – and to thank My Gym Enterprises for their partnership and support in introducing Kidpower to children and families across the US and around the world.

Finally, I thought you would be interested in this KRON 4 San Francisco TV newsclip with Kidpower International Board President April Yee about Back to School Safety Tips:
With September around the corner, International Child Protection Advocacy Month is almost here – and we will be providing you with a number of free online child protection resources that you can share through your in-person and online social and professional circles.
Together, we can transform the fear of bullying, violence, and abuse, into a future of lifelong safety, confidence, and success for today’s youth.
Kidpower Safety Comics for children, youth, and teens provide an entertaining and useful way to introduce and practice safety skills.
