The Children's Safety Village

Today we got the treat of visiting the Children's Safety Village. The children got a lesson in safety including how to react to strangers, what to do if you are lost, what police officers look like and what the road signs mean.

Then they got to drive around in the village; a miniature town complete with a railroad crossing,

a fire station,

a police station (I think they violated some traffic laws!),

how could you lock this cutie up?
and fun cars to drive through it. To my great surprise, there were no seat belts or car seats...isn't that illegal? Here is Jonathan and his passenger, Luke in the last car.
Here is Hannah speeding along (drives just like her Mom!)

This is Josiah driving along and then stopping for a red light at the functioning traffic lights.
and of course, what village would be complete without a McDonalds!

Hey! We have a "Safety Village" near us too, except it's called "Safety City". It's a great idea!
