Special Workshops are being conducted in select schools during December 2010 / January 2011 to educate children about Kitchen Safety and safe use of LPG at home. An info-tainment approach using fun Animation to educate the kids while entertaining them has been adopted to attract the interest of the children. Considering that Children in the age-group of 5-10 years (1st to 5th standard) are increasingly becoming strong influencers in their households, the ‘Art for Awareness’ campaign communicates directly with them. These children thus bring home the safety message to the mother and the household.
An on-the-spot Drawing Competition is conducted for the children after the workshop to reinforce their understanding of LPG Safety. They are also given an ‘Art for Awareness’ Kit, comprising of a Booklet on LPG safety and conservation which educates the mothers with detailed Do’s and Don’ts related to safe LPG usage and conservation. A National level drawing competition, (emphasizing on Kitchen Safety) where Parents can participate along with their kids, is also being planned. |
