activity
Volunteer to help educate children on passenger safety. Participants will volunteer to participate in Ollie Otter presentations, interacting with elementary school children to promote child passenger safety. Opportunities for Service Learning hours/credit may be available depending on your high school’s required curriculum. The Ollie Otter Booster Seat and Seat Belt program is grant-funded through the Tennessee Highway Safety Office (THSO). The THSO has been integral in the inception and continued success of the Ollie Otter program.
Anyone can do this. All you need is a thumb, some nail polish, and the desire to be safer behind the wheel. Host it to recognize an event, campaign, or the memory of a fellow student lost to a traffic crash.
Host a table or booth at a school event or during lunch periods, study hall, or homeroom, and paint the thumbs of your peers. Take photos of the event.
Have a photo or screenshots ready with students completing the activity and click Submit Points. This activity can be submitted up to 20 times per school.
