Accidents are the leading cause of injury and death of children between the ages of 1 and 9. In London, 600 children per month are injured; 95% of these accidents are preventable.

The Children's Safety Village consists of a main building with two classrooms and a miniature town. The Village is being built on four acres of land provided by the Upper Thames Conservation Authority - with up to 30 scaled-down buildings, roadways, traffic lights and signs, an operational railway crossing, and a school bus. After classroom instruction by various safety personnel, the children demonstrate their knowledge of safety through the use of electric cars, bicycles, and walking tours.

The target market is approximately 15,000 students from Grade 1 to Grade 4 each school year in the London Area.

The preceeding information was obtained from the Children's Safety Village website.
