Encourage Helmet Use



 

Encouraging Your Child to Wear a Helmet

 

 

Let your child select a helmet. Most dealers will offer a selection of colors and designs.

 

 

 

Wear your helmets when you ride with your child. Setting a good example is essential!

 

 

 

Praise and reward your child each time he wears his helmet.

 

 

 

Begin the helmet habit with your child's first wheel toys. This will make wearing a helmet the natural thing for your child to do.

 

 

 

Encourage other parents in your neighborhood to purchase helmets for their children. Your child will not be different wearing a helmet if peers do so too.
