all those with older kids who've ever been left alone at home (even if only for 5 minutes) - what do you think your child needed to know or be able to do before you could leave them safely?
This is for a lesson I'm preparing for 9 to 12 year olds. am lacking inspiration...
So far I've thought of doors (can you open and shut them safely if there's an emergency?)phone numbers (emergency contact numbers), what to do if someone comes to the door, what to do/say if the phone rings, food and drink (what can you eat and drink? are you allowed to help yourself?)house rules (e.g. are you allowed on the computer or to phone friends?)
any more that I've missed out?
