Water Safety for Early Learning and Care
 

Drama, roleplay, arts and crafts, messy play and more!

 
 

Children use play to re-create the world

In this way, they can experience the world without risking the consequences. Using drama, roleplay, arts and crafts and even messy play, you can use the Hold Hands lesson plans to further extend each storyboard scenario and create a meaningful learning experience for each child.

 
 

Get creative

 
 

You don’t have to be a water safety expert to teach children how to be safe around water

Even if you don’t feel 100% confident delivering water safety education, you can follow our structured lesson plans which will guide you through delivering the key water safety messages for each scenario. Parents/Guardians can also contribute to their children’s water safety awareness by expanding on their learning and engaging with their child’s current water safety knowledge. Educators can support the children’s learning by encouraging parents/guardians to access our Hold Hands digital resources at home.

Let’s make water safety something children live and breathe at every age.
