🐣This Easter, let’s Hold Hands around water

The Easter break is a great opportunity for families to talk about water safety together.

Parents and carers are encouraged to use Water Safety Ireland’s storyboards and lesson plans to work your way through the water settings that matter most to your family whether that’s at home, on the farm, in the pool, on holidays, or near beaches, rivers and lakes.

• Work through the activities
• Start simple, life saving conversations
• Hold hands near water – always

🛟Explore the free resources and help keep children safe this Easter.
