A new school year means new routines, greater independence, and more time away from home. Use this checklist with your child to make sure they know how to stay safe, how to reach you, and what to do when plans change.

A Safer School Year Starts With a Plan!

Children don't need to memorize every possible emergency scenario.

They need simple, practiced actions they can remember when something unexpected happens.

For families with younger children, an Emojikidz GPS smartwatch can help provide age-appropriate communication and safety features without jumping directly to a traditional smartphone.

Parenting Tip:

Complete this checklist at the beginning of each school year and review it whenever your child's school, transportation, caregiver, or after-school routine changes.

  • Confirm your child’s school, bus, pickup and after-school schedule.
  • Review approved pickup people and emergency contacts with your child.
  • Make sure your child knows who to call and what to do if plans unexpectedly change.
  • Practice the safest walking route, bus stop or pickup location together.
  • Review your family’s check-in routine for arriving at school, home or activities.
  • Update caregiver, school and emergency contact information as needed.
  • If your child uses a GPS smartwatch, review SOS contacts, geofences, location alerts and Classroom/School Mode before the first day.
