Campaign: Seat Belt for kids

 Seat Belt Basics
  • Whenever you ride in a car, wear your seat belt every time. No matter how short the trip is — even if it's only around the corner — you still need to buckle up. This is so important because if the car you're riding in gets into an accident, the seat belt restrains you. (Restrain is a fancy word for holding you back.) Even if the car is moving slowly, you can still get thrown around if you're not wearing your seat belt.

    1. Say "Good morning" to a person standing next to you in the elevator.
    2. Pay the toll for the driver behind you.
    3. Take a minute to direct someone who is lost, even though you're rushing.

    6. Give a homeless person your doggie bag.
    7. Say "I love you" to someone you love.

    9. Help a mother carry her baby stroller up the subway stairs, or hold a door open for her.
    10. Each time you get a new item of clothing, give away something old.
    11. Take someone's shift as the car-pool parent.
    12. Bring your assistant coffee.
    13. Out of the blue, send flowers to a friend.
