April: Child Safety Month, in recognition of the children of this state
as this state’s most precious resource. Child Safety Month is meant
to ensure that the children of this state grow up in a safe and sup-
portive environment by promoting their protection and care through
increased public awareness of ways to reduce accidental injury
and death through the use of bicycle helmets, seat belts, safety
and booster seats, and smoke alarms, and the dangers presented
to children by unattended and unlocked vehicles and by being left
in closed vehicles during hot or sunny weather. Child Safety Month
may be regularly observed by appropriate celebrations and activi-
ties in public schools to promote the protection and care of children
in this state.
