Objective Action

A park for young and old, with a bike path and a small bike track for the little ones.
Here children can learn the basics of the road traffic code since the relevant markings will put them in the mood from a young age.
So growing up we will have better guides.

 

Target Audience

For young and old.

Description

As our little ones grow up and learn about the world around them, they slowly begin to become independent and move around on their own, until one day we see them behind a wheel or on a bike and our heart skips a beat. The traffic education for children comes to introduce Lilliputian citizens to the traffic and safety rules of the road network, so that when they reach driving age they have been nurtured with the right practices.

Impact on Society

Children discover experientially:

  • Correct traffic behavior
  • The correct behavior of drivers and pedestrians
  • To understand what the pedestrian crossing is for and how they should cross the road
  • To get to know some basic provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure
  • To find out what they should watch out for as pedestrians
  • To identify the points that need special attention in order to move safely as passengers either in the car or on public transport
  • To learn the signs that determine the appropriate stopping/parking areas.
