Preventable injuries are the number-one killer of children ages 14 and under in the United States. Each year, one out of every four children is hurt seriously enough to require medical attention. The I'm Safe! series provides parents with a fresh approach to teaching children valuable life and safety skills. As children follow the adventures in these colorful storybooks, they discover proven solutions for everyday challenges, both real and imagined. More than just fun stories, children will be empowered to do something about their own safety and well-being. Based on extensive interviews with educators, early childhood experts, pediatricians, parents, their children, day care providers, and children's organizations, the I'm Safe! approach weaves entertaining stories together with important skills in a way that young children can grasp and practice them. Each story book has an companion activity book. Kip can't wait to take swimming lessons. But his sister Kayla is afraid to go in the pool. Kip and Kayla find that the more they learn about water safety, the more fun they have in the pool. From bathtubs to swimming pools, children learn skills to stay safe in and around water.
