First Aid For Kids

I am part of a community organization that has the responsibility of teaching some 12 to 16 year old kids first aid. We know how to teach first aid but we need some ideas of how to make it interesting for the kids. Any ideas?

Developed in conjunction with some of the worlds leading first aid and paediatric specialists, First Aid for Kids is an exciting and innovative ...

It needs to be something simple but fun to teach like 3rd graders the basics of first aid??? Any ideas where I could find such an activity?

Give this a go

My family is going to make first aid kits for the house and car(well bus in our case). And where else should we have first aid kits?
Kids are ages 2-18. Mix of boys and girls.
What kind of stuff should we have in them?
We live in the USA
anything else?

The first aid kit for the house:
Take a large shoe box(the kind that you can put big boots in)
a variety size of band aids (100 pck.)
45 yds of gauze
athletic tape
scissors
15 pck of tampons
peroxide
alcohol
antibiotic ointment
a table spoon
lighter.


For the car
everything that is in the home kit plus:
some emergency blankets(these won't fit in the box, put them in the back of the van)
a heavy duty light.
a hand held radio
a quick stitch kit(with instructions)
extra gauze
pain pills


The one for the house should go where everyone responsible enough to handle a first aid kit is able to get to it. Like, one of the top shelves in a closet, or on top of the fridge.

The one for your bus should go where you and the other parent can get to it fast. The blankets and light can go in the back of the bus though if you wish.

Hope I helped!


Edit: Thumbs down?? What for??

I'm trying to teach a couple Kids (ages 2-10) some basic First Aid over the summer months. I'm trying to find some activities to do for them (coloring pages, arts and crafts, etc). I googled for the last 2 hours, but couldn't really find anything special. Any ideas on what to do or where I can find something?

Dig up some old dolls and use them for fixing up again. Broken bones, scrapes, cuts etc. Use ketchup, splints, bandages, eye patches etc.

does any body else think first aid classes for babies and toddlers should be a part of ante natal classes? i certainly do

yes I do , and I think it should be manatory to know basic first aid when you have children, all parents should know how to do CPR, treat bleeding , shock, know what a fever is and what to do about it and how to handle choking. It is scary to think that many parents dont know this, and with children you are sure to encounter many of these situations.
