Child Safety Tattoos

It’s a parent’s worst nightmare. On a family trip to an amusement park, their child is separated from them and is lost. If that family had used child safety tattoos, their child would have been able to go to a park employee and they could have been quickly reunited with one another.

You can explain to your child the importance of staying close to you when you’re out in public. However, even though you and your child do your best, it is still possible to get separated. Temporary tattoos can be used to help keep your children safe and give you peace of mind. Here’s how they work and why they’re such a great idea.

Temporary tattoos are a fun, colorful ID product that can be used to keep children safe. They come in a variety of tattoos. The tattoos, which remain on the skin for three to seven days even through bathing or swimming, can be used to provide a telephone number to contact in case a child gets lost or otherwise separated from a parent or caregiver. There are also temporary tattoos which alert others to emergency medical information.

Lost and Found temporary tattoos are perfect for children or adults with autism or another medical condition that makes verbal communication difficult. They attach emergency contact information directly to the skin. They cannot be removed in the same way as a lanyard and ID or a piece of jewelry.

Besides giving your peace of mind should your child be lost while out and about, they may actually save a child’s life. Suppose your child has a life-threatening allergy to peanuts or another substance. Wearing one of these temporary tattoos will enable teachers or others to contact someone who can help because the tattoos have an emergency number on them.

Even though parents do everything they can to ensure their children are safe, children can quickly move away from a parent or caregiver. They can slip away and truly be lost. If the child is young and doesn’t know their telephone number or sometimes your given name.  Most kids when asked for their parents name will say “Mom and Dad”.  Temporary tattoos provide the information needed to get you and your child back together.

There are several temporary tattoo manufacturers. To find one, you can search for them online. A few possible manufacturers are SafetyTat or Lost & Found Temporary Tattoos, however, there are others. You can also check with local Child Advocacy Centers to see if they know of manufacturers of these personalized child safety tattoos.
