Calm Down Power

Kidpower Safety Signals are simple gestures, words, and drawings that make it easy to teach, learn, and remember the key interpersonal safety strategies, concepts, and skills we teach to children, teens, and adults, including those with special needs, of many different cultures around the world.

You can use our 30 Kidpower Safety Signals to teach social safety skills and concepts for how to:

• Prevent and stop trouble with people
• Take charge of our feelings, words, feelings, and bodies
• Build better relationships
• Take charge of our safety out in public
• Develop healthy boundaries with people we know

Once people have learned these ideas and skills, the Kidpower Safety Signals can serve as reminders to coach their use in daily life.

You can either use our form below or join our free community library to download a PDF of our 30 Kidpower Safety Signals for the above topics with graphics and directions for their use. (Our Safety Signals are now available in Spanish below!)
