- Before you go, retell stories about earlier journeys, talk together about the new journey, read books with your children about families who are making a journey.
- Talk with your children about ways to keep safe when travelling
- Think up activities that your children can do with you such as
- Making a road safety book about your family using photos of your children travelling safely – holding your hand, buckled up in their child restraint, using the safety door (rear kerbside door of the car)
