The Mentor Safety Village Plan
The wheel was one of the greatest inventions of all time. From early on, children are fascinated by the wheel due to its ability to move. One of the first toys kids choose after learning to walk is a stroller, or something to push. They love riding on toys, are fascinated by cars, trucks and busses. Tricycles are soon replaced with training wheels on bicycles, then scooters, mini-bikes, ATVs. What teenager doesn’t look forward to driving? America’s fascination with the automobile is second to none. It should be no surprise to us that the wheel is responsible for more deaths to children than any other invention.
Changing that is our priority. We have seen what unintentional injuries can do to a child, and we’ve also seen what prevention and education can do as well.
