Our integrative play-based approach provides a safe space for children to express emotions, develop social skills, and build confidence while benefiting from supported peer interactions.

Road Safety and Traffic Rules Awareness Program (FREE ONLINE) for Schools
Approximately 1.3 million people die each year as a result of road traffic crashes. Between 20 and 50 million people suffer non-fatal injuries, with many incurring a disability as a result of their injury. Road traffic injuries are the leading cause of death for children and young adults aged 5–29 years. The main reason behind these road accidents is not following or knowing traffic and road safety rules.
Trafficquiz.com is a free-to use website developed with the aim of spreading awareness regarding traffic rules and road safety rules. Through trafficquiz.com, students can learn and test their knowledge about traffic and road safety rules in an entertaining way, i.e., by playing quizzes. Teachers and parents can also use trafficquiz.com regularly to refresh their knowledge about traffic, road safety, and child safety rules. School bus drivers can also regularly use it to learn and be conscious about following traffic rules. The benefit of being online is that trafficquiz.com can be used anytime, anywhere, on any device.
We request that you kindly share the links given below with students, parents, teachers, and the driving staff so that everyone can learn and be conscious about following road safety and traffic rules. This can save many lives.

Why is it necessary?
· About three-quarters (73%) of all road traffic deaths occur among young males under the age of 25.
· More than half of all road traffic deaths are among vulnerable road users: pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists.
· Road traffic injuries cause considerable economic losses to individuals, their families, and to nations as a whole.
Please encourage everyone to follow the traffic rules. We hope you will be a part of this initiative. We thank you for your support in advance. If you have any queries, then please reply back to this email.
Yours Sincerely,
