It's finally here! The "Smokey the Bear" of water safety. Introducing Wally the Waterdog, he's to help children and parents alike learn simple water safety rules. Safety Around Water, LLC is dedicated to reducing childhood drownings which are 99% preventable. This game is meant to be played with an adult so both the child and the parent learn the rules. By tapping their finger to move Wally along through the house (maze) they understand they need to collect certain items BEFORE they can jump in the pool for a WIN. This cognitive exercise helps children with their dexterity while learning and having fun with the game. Playing Wally the Waterdog's game will help them learn cause and effect, be responsible, and understand the protocol for being safe around water. BECAUSE: if kids don't follow the rules in the game, Wally can’t get to the pool to play in the water and he is sent back to his bedroom until he learns!
How to play: Tap on Wally the Waterdog and move him along through the house picking up the Mom first, then walking over to grab the Water Safety Band. The band is an exaggerated size but the point is the adult has to wear this by the pool to identify themselves as the water watcher. And finally, grabbing the sun screen so he doesn't get burnt. After all that is accomplished, Wally gets to jump into the pool. They can play this over and over and eventually everyone will love to know the water rules and be the smart ones around water!
Go to the website www.safetyaroundwater.com to see more interactive fun games, and get great information that will help families avoid any tragedies! There will be more Wally Water games in the future with more friends being introduced and other water situations which children and parents can prepare themselves to be safe, because they'll learn the rules. The water rules can be applied to any situation so the repetition and overlapping enforces the same water rule principals.
TWENTY percent of all of our proceeds goes back to families in communities who might not otherwise be able to afford swim lessons. This is done through partial and full scholarships. We also help those who need barriers for their pools etc. Safety Around Water LLC is designed to save lives through educational games, our wonderful character Wally and his family, and reduce the number of drownings that occur all too often through our message: "KEEP YOUR EYES ON YOUR CHILD." So, come play with Wally and have a great safe time around water!
