Video Series: Safety for children with special needs

While browsing through some special needs videos on You Tube, I came across this great animated series of safety videos for children with special needs.  The series, comprised of eight videos focuses on safety concerns such as fire and burn prevention, water safety, poison control and more. Each video documents a family who has a child with special needs and what they do in their home to prevent injury.

The video series is presented by Safe Kids USA. Safe Kids USA is a nationwide network of organizations working to prevent unintentional childhood injury, the leading cause of death and disability for children ages 1 to 14.
