There's nothing more important than the health and safety of our children. Help establish lifelong safety habits that set a pattern of safety for children -- always buckle them in a child safety seat and teach them the importance of wearing bicycle helmets each time they ride. Patterns set early become patterns for life.

Here's an interesting fact. Research shows that child safety seats, when used correctly, can reduce fatalities among children less than five years old by 71 percent! That makes child safety seats one of the most effective safety innovations ever developed. Always buckle your children in child safety seats, and set a pattern for life.

If your child is properly buckled in a child safety seat from birth, she'll grow up thinking it's only natural to sit in a child safety seat and wear safety belts on every trip. They're her best protection from serious injury or death in the event of a crash. Patterns set early become patterns for life.

Help young people set a lifelong pattern of healthy traffic safety habits. Buckle them in child safety seats and safety belts as they grow older, teach them the importance of watching for traffic as they walk to and from school, and insist they wear a helmet when riding a bike. All safety tips we can live with. Patterns set early become patterns for life.

Help set a pattern for life. Infants should always ride in a rear-facing child safety seat, and that seat should always be placed in the back seat of your car -- never in a passenger seat equipped with an air bag. Good safety practices are something we all can live with. Patterns set early become patterns for life.

Here's a safety tip we all can live with. Children should ride in the rear seat whenever possible and should always be buckled up, particularly if your car has air bags. Air bags can be harmful to children who aren't properly restrained, and remember, never place a rear-facing child safety seat in the pasenger seat if you have an air bag. Patterns set early become patterns for life. Set them early -- it's a safety tip we can all live with.
