Safest Places for Children

Dreams

When we talk about dreams, these are not the dreams of monsters, scary dolls and ghosts. These kinds of dreams portray unicorns, fairies, happy moments and a lot more. When you dream, you don’t get hurt physically. When you fall, you don’t break your bones. If you became brave in your dreams, you don’t drown when you decided to swim for the first time.

Beside their Parents

Your parents are capable of protecting you emotionally and physically. Therefore, if you try wandering around the mall, do not go alone, drag your dad or mom instead to but your favorite toy.

School

I am not talking about the busy streets of China or any other streets with only a centimeter away from people. These crowded places are filled with people but not too many. If something happens to you in abandoned-like place, for sure, no one will help you. However, if you are in a crowded place, a lot of people can help you and may even keep you away from possible danger.

Home

Next to dreams, this is the second safest place. You don’t get struck by the heat of the sun, get sick with the undying rain and people trying to get you. Of course, if your parents are at home with you.
