Talk with the children about the importance of sitting in their car seats. Read Berenstain Baby Bears My Trusty Car Seat by Stan Berenstain and Jan Berenstain. Have the children sit with a small doll in their laps. Ask the children to stand up. What happens to the baby? The baby falls and gets hurt. Now attach the baby doll using tape or a simple belt. Now ask the children to stand up. The belt keeps the baby in the seat, safe!This activity could be done in small group.
