Calling all libraries and community groups! Kids Alive is thrilled to launch Frog Squad, a new program ensuring water safety education is accessible to all children year-round. With 29% of children only learning to swim in summer and 39% of drownings occurring before summer, Frog Squad uses storytelling, music, and play to teach vital water safety principles in a fun, engaging way.
Research shows books are highly effective in teaching water safety, with 83% of people recognising potential dangers and 4 out of 5 parents saying what they learned reinforced safe behaviours. Our goal is to reach millions of children through community groups, early learning centres, and libraries, integrating water safety into daily routines.
Join us in making water safety a year-round priority. For more information and to access free online training and resources, visit Kids Alive Teacher’s Hub. Let’s work together to keep our children safe!
