Guidance on Visiting Traffic Safety
Last Updated January 26, 2023
In order to protect infants from traffic accidents, infant traffic safety education instructors visit the garden and provide guidance on correct crossing methods.
For guidance, puppet dolls and panel theaters are used to make the content easy for infants to understand.
Visit guidance is intended for kindergartens (including certified children's schools), licensed nursery schools (excluding regional models), and Yokohama nursery rooms in Yokohama where there are 10 or more infants (3, 4 and 5 years old).
