First Aid Basics | Little Roots Outdoor Skills #1 🌲⛑️
12-Page Practical Skills Study | Ages 2–9 | FREE
What should a child do when someone gets hurt?
They don't need to know how to fix every injury—but they can learn how to stay calm, stay safe, get a trusted grown-up, and recognize when something may be an emergency.
Welcome to Little Roots Outdoor Skills, a new series focused on practical, age-appropriate skills for little adventurers!
We're starting with First Aid Basics, a FREE 12-page study designed to introduce young children to simple first-aid and emergency-safety concepts without putting the responsibility of treating injuries on them.
Children will explore:
🌲 Stop • Look • Get Help
🩹 What's inside a first-aid kit
🩸 Basic care concepts for minor cuts and scrapes
🧊 Bruises, sprains, and cold-pack safety
🪵 Splinters, insect stings, and ticks
🔥 Basic burn safety
📞 When an emergency may require 911
🗣️ What to tell an emergency dispatcher
🩸 Getting help and applying pressure for significant bleeding
🎒 What to pack before an outdoor adventure
💊 An important medicine-safety rule
🧸 Pretend first-aid practice using a stuffed animal
🥾 Outdoor emergency scenarios
✏️ Review questions + family first-aid-kit activity
Throughout the study, children are reminded of one important message:
You don't have to know how to fix every injury to be a great helper. Stay safe, get a trusted grown-up, know how to call for emergency help, and let trained adults take over when an injury is serious.
