BooBoo Bandits
As a father of 4 children, Larry saw the need for a platform to get SafeStart concepts across to children. In 2007 Larry wrote and produced ‘BooBoo Bandits,’ a short film designed for kids that teaches hazard recognition of hard, sharp, hot and slippery objects. In 2016, Larry went on to write and produce three more episodes of Boo Boo Bandits, introducing further dangers to children, such as drowning, suffocation, and poisoning, as well as teaching children about how human factors such as rushing, frustration, fatigue, and complacency increase their risk of getting hurt. The BooBoo Bandits program has expanded even further since, including toys, colouring books, and an accompanying app to help children recognize the Error States.
