About Our Site
coloured
buttonss
at the top of our website
are links. If you click on the
button it will take you to
information about each topic.
The information on
our site is written for children and
adults in easy to understand terms.
Although the information may appear
simplistic in nature the message
itself is very important and vital
to the protection of your children.
There are so many things to be careful
about today, so many in fact, as parents we
can lose track of what we have or haven't
had time to teach our kids.
Have we warned them about everything?
Have we given them every tool available,
so they can stay safe and be aware of
dangerous situations?

This Because I Love You"
weekly tip...
Tell your children what could happen to them if they run away
and that there is nothing that can't be fixed, if you work
together.

A Quiz For You
I thought we might have
some fun today with a quiz you can do with your
family or on your own. By taking it you will have a
good idea of how prepared you and your family are
when it comes to safety situations in everyday life.
The answers are at the
bottom of the quiz, and the complete explanations
for each question can be found in our "Weekly Tip
Archive" section. Have fun and I hope everyone
scores 10 out of 10!
Hello Parents, it's
wonderful to be able to chat
with you again! As most of
you are not aware, December
2009 has been a write off
for me, culminating in
emergency surgery last
Sunday. Through the grace of
powers beyond, and the
absolutely amazing powers of
Surgeon, Dr. Benjamin
Sawyer, the Emergency Staff
, Dr. "Darryl" of Emergency,
RN's Michi and Shelbey,
anesthetist " Man With No
Name" ( can you hear "
Spaghetti Western" music in
the background?) and all of
the remaining people who
saved my life on December
13, 2009, I hope and pray
Santa spoils you! They all
work at St. Josephs Hospital
in Comox Valley. Put simply,
St. Josephs Hospital saved
my life on December 13,
2009! I thank everyone
involved, and the hundreds
of people who work everyday,
to keep this wonderful
Hospital clean, patients
with meals, equipment
updated and repaired, and
most of all, the grace in
which they do their jobs.
Truth be told, I'm a brutal
patient when I'm in agony,
yet everyone I was involved
with during that horrific
day, showed complete
tolerance and caring. I will
never forget any of you.
THANK-YOU! Steven Baird
Editorial for December 6th ,
2009
It's
the season for love, caring,
redemption, but most
importantly, taking care of
our most precious
possession, our children.
I've been hanging out at
malls and shopping centres
for the last two weeks, and
I've noticed something that
really scares me and I hope
you will think about it as
you travel through the crazy
maze of Christmas shopping!
I have seen 11 infants crash
their faces against the push
bar of shopping carts, and
draw blood. I have seen
parents have a momentary
lapse, juggling boxes and
NOT know where their
children were. I have seen 9
Parents lovingly put their
children into their car
seats after putting away
their purchases, only to
close the door and walk the
shopping cart back to it's
stand 500 metres away.
Sometimes it's the little
thoughtless things that get
us into trouble. Take
care and have a great week.

Street Smart Kidz News -
December 6th, 2009
We
have had another great week
here at Street Smart Kidz,
although nothing went
according to plan. We were
looking forward to spending
some time at Superstore, but
it wasn't meant to be. On
our first day at Superstore,
after setting up our
information booth, we were
lost in the crowd. X-Mas
tree's arriving, pallets of
toys being moved around,
people lost and confused
because of the new
renovation, parking issue's
, taxi issue's, shopping
cart issue's. In short, we
were unable to talk to
Parents about Child Safety.
Superstore provided us with
a great venue to talk and
teach, but Street Smart Kidz
is not, and never will be
aggressive in trying to
spread our message. In
short, it wasn't a good fit.
So we didn't slack off! We
planted ourselves in various
places in Courtenay through
the week and closed our week
at Canadian Tire. We gave
out 635 Child Safety
Booklets for the week, with
78 given out at Canadian
Tire on Friday in 5 hours.
We have talked to many
amazing parents during the
last week who have taught us
a lot, much of which will be
in next years Editorials.
This week we will be hanging
out at Future Shop in
Courtenay. I'm looking
forward to working with
their amazing staff and
clientele. Whenever I need a
question answered about our
office electronics, Street
Smart Kidz always goes to
Future Shop. Come down and
say hello. Steven
STREET SMART KIDZ needs your
help
so that we can help
families!!!
