Welcome Splash

    Hello and welcome to the Colonial Beach Moose Lodge's Kids Talk page. For those of you that do not know what Kids Talk is, let me explain. Kids Talk was originally started as a drug awareness program sponsered by Nancy Reagan. The talks were directed to children ages 4-9. Over the years it has expanded to many different topics such as the different dangers many kids will face. It is now a scholarship program for anyone in the 10th through 12th grades. The main goal for this project is to educate younger children about different dangers and forms of safety in their lives.

Now comes the fun part...the projects themselves! Three students from Colonial Beach High School participated in the Kid's Talk schloarship program. With the help of the Colonial Beach Moose Lodge and our sponser Miss Mary Pietras, we made our projects the best they could be.

Lauren Harrison chose "Danger Awareness" as her Kid's Talk topic. Her project will explain different dangers that kids could encounter anywhere and what to do if this should happen. By using different games and a  homemade video, she explained the dangers of matches, guns, fires, and other obsticals.

Cassie Cecil's topic was "At Home Saftey". Her goal is to explain to the children what to do and what NOT to do if they are home alone  For her project, she used different games and a skit where the kids would "freeze" the actors if they were about to do something dangerous.

And finally there's me, Hallie Gray. I chose outdoor saftey for my topic. I explained to kids what to look for and what to watch out for when playing alone, or with friends outside. By taking the kids outside to a playground and helping them spot the dangers, and by creating this site, I taught the children about the hazards of strangers, playgrounds, and other things arround town.

*About Our Site*

This site, in a nutshell, is to further expand our project. Our idea was for the children that we spoke to to have something to show their parents, siblings, or friends. This site will explain all of our projects in detail, have some fun and helpful links about each of the topics, a page for the parents, and even a page with the activities for the kids. Look arround and enjoy!
