We all have a responsibility to ensure safe environments for our children. Regardless of whether or not we choose to allow our children to use firearms, the fact is, they are a part of our culture. Our children are inundated with visuals of guns on television, video games, cartoons, movies and in many of the games they play.
Chances are very good that you or someone you know owns a firearm. They belong to our government leaders, doctors, lawyers, nurses, teachers—virtually all walks of life. If you don’t own a firearm, chances are that one of these people that do is a neighbor. We think it’s vitally important that you and your children know what to do when you encounter a firearm. In our extended firearms training we teach the important concepts of ACTS and PROVE. These words are acronyms that detail a safety plan for firearms.
In acts: A stands for assume that the firearm is loaded, C stands for control the muzzle direction at all times, T stands for trigger where we instruct our students to keep their fingers off the trigger and out of the trigger guard and S stands for seeing the firearm is unloaded and proving it is safe. While ACTS and PROVE are tremendous acronyms to guide firearm safety, these concepts are beyond the targetted age group for this program. With Kidwise, our goal is to provide a simple, yet effective solution to firearm safety for children that are not yet able to comprehend the vital four ACTS of firearm safety.
