Spotting Danger Before It Spots Your Kids: Head's Up
Autor Gary Dean Quesenberryen Limba Engleză Hardback – apr 2022
Spotting Danger Before It Spots Your KIDS is a book about presenting the concepts of situational awareness to children (ages 5 - 12) in a way that will keep them engaged and help them take an active role in their own personal security.
This book will show you how to use fun, interactive games to build situational awareness skills such as:
- How children can identify and understand normal environmental behaviors.
- How children can spot abnormal behaviors within their given environment.
- How to give children a plan and a means of avoidance or escape should a dangerous situation present itself.
Your child's future success will depend on their ability to interact with their surroundings and make sound decisions based on what they see. That's the foundation of situational awareness.
Author Gary Quesenberry has spent nearly two decades working as a federal air marshal. The training methods outlined in this book are based on the lessons learned not only as a counter-terror agent but also as a father of three.
