Have you ever wondered how your toddler can call 000 in an emergency when your iPhone or android is locked?
A few months ago I asked everyone for suggestions on Instagram on how to teach toddlers to phone 000 in case of an emergency.
Keep reading for some tips….
– Go old school and buy a landline phone.
– Go one step better and add photos of important people for your child to recognise and click the picture as a direct line call (this is genius)
– Put your child’s face in your phone for face recognition and teach them where to find the phone icon
– Teach your child how to access emergency calls from a locked phone
– Teach your child how to say your house address. Have it written down somewhere at their height for an easy reminder.
– Create an emergency contact poster with pictures that are easy for a child to recognise. Eg. Photo of police, paramedic and firefighter with 000 written next to it.
