A Great Idea When You Misplace a Child

We were in the Riverside Museum the other day (yes, even with their EXTORTIONATE parking costs – unsurprisingly the car park was almost empty btw) with some friends and between us we managed to lose a child. It wasn’t busy in the slightest and it was just for a few minutes, but it was a scary scenario all the same.

It made me think about what you should do when you misplace a child, especially if you’re in a busy place. I’d seen a friend share this a few days before and thought it was pretty useful advice, so I thought I’d share here too.

In short, instead of shouting the child’s name it’s a much better idea to shout that you’re looking for a boy/girl wearing ______ (whatever the child is wearing). Another great idea if you’re going to be somewhere that’s really busy is to take a photo of your kids in the morning so you can easily show security or staff what they look like/are wearing. I’ve also seen a few kids with a phone number written on their arm so one of their parents can be contacted if they manage to get lost.
