The Eddie Eagle GunSafe® Program
We the Kids believes it is important to protect our children. One of the best ways to do this is to EDUCATE them. As such, we are utilizing the Eddie Eagle Program to teach gun safety. Children need to know that "Guns are TOOLS not TOYS!" and what to do if they come upon one! "If you see a gun, STOP! Don't Touch. Leave the Area. Tell an Adult." The purpose of the Eddie Eagle Program isn't to teach whether guns are good or bad, but rather to promote the protection and safety of children. Thank you so much. Judy [...]
