After I returned from a senior first aid course, Zagan wanted to learn all about the basics. Here are a couple snaps of him practising how to respond to a snake bite.
As he was so interested, and capable of paying attention and learning, it got me thinking about the importance of children knowing some core first aid of their own. After some googling, it became quite clear there is not much age appropriate stuff out their for children. So I have decided to collate what I can as well as put a few things together that might help better prepare my little guy, in case of emergency.
Here are some books that might interest you or your children (no affiliation).
