Young children don’t have the skills or knowledge to stay safe in heavy traffic. The following tips will be helpful for you to keep your children safe in heavy traffic.

Children learn about road safety by watching others. As parents, make sure that you always set good examples. Your children will follow you and think it’s OK to do like you.

Teach your children to pay attention to traffic lights when you cross the road together with them. This helps them understand when it’s safe to cross. Make sure that you walk between your children and traffic, and hold their hands all the time.

When your children are a little older, you can start to tell them the importance of traffic knowledge. Let them start to understand the reasons why they need to be so careful. Talk with them about road signs and traffic rules.

Ask your children to play in a safe place. Never let them ride bikes on the road without an adult present at rush hours.

The most important thing you can do is to keep your children from getting hurt, so parents encourage them to follow traffic rules. After knowing about traffic rules, they’ll volunteer to obey them. In this way, they’ll be careful enough to keep themselves away from danger.

These people come from the poorest places of Kenya. They were beggars and workers on the farm. However, they are people with dreams and hopes. Thanks to Jamii Bora, thousands of them are realizing their dreams.

When Ingrid Munro worked in the UK she learned about the lives of the poor, so she always tried her best to help the poor. And in 1988,Munro and her Canadian husband had adopted（收養(yǎng)）a homeless boy. This boy had been run over by a bus and was unable to walk freely. Munro's learning about the hard lives of the poor increased when she adopted the boy's two brothers two years later.

In 1999 she decided to start a small club in Kenya. The members would be 50 women, beggars who had been kind to children. No one imagined it could become so successful that it would change into a bank called Jamii Bora Bank. Munro did not expect that it would turn out to be such a great success. Instead of employing（雇傭） experts, she has trained those women herself. And she employs ex-beggars, the ones who joined them in the very early days and have come out of poverty. She teaches these beggars how to do everything from the beginning. What makes this bank different from others is the way they treat the borrowers. They help these poor people educate their children, and help with housing. They even teach business skills so that people can live a better life.
