00:00No bandits, please.
00:07Arzu was the class monitor for the month.
00:10One of the duties of the class monitor was to take the attendance every morning.
00:18Arzu was a little surprised as four children were absent today, and that too on a day when
00:29they were being shown a movie, The Secret Life of Wild Animals.
00:36The twins Ishaan and Hrithika never missed school.
00:41Even Melvin and Uwais were quite regular.
00:46That evening, when she reached home, she called up her classmates to find out why they were
00:53absent.
00:55We got hurt when we slipped over our toys, which we had forgotten to pick up from the
01:02floor.
01:03When daddy came home from work, we just ran out of our room to hug him.
01:10That is when we tripped and hurt ourselves.
01:17I fell on the road as I tried to jump off the bus before it could stop completely at
01:24my stop yesterday afternoon.
01:26As soon as the school bell rang, I ran down the stairs as I wanted to get my favorite
01:35seat in the school bus.
01:37I hurt my back.
01:38I am not able to sit.
01:42That night, when Arzu went to bed, she promised herself that she will follow all the rules
01:49that her parents, elders and teachers have been teaching her, ever since she started
01:55to crawl.
02:01We all like to play, but we cannot play everywhere and with everything.
02:11We should never play with sharp and pointed objects, glass and ceramic objects.
02:20We should never touch electric wires with wet hands.
02:26We can play with games like Ludo, Uno cards, puzzles, carom, etc.
02:36But we must pick them up from the floor after playing.
02:41We should never play near gas stove, lantern, candle, etc.
02:51We should never play on terraces.
02:55We should never play in balconies.
03:00We should never open the door to strangers.
03:05We should also not open the door to someone we know, if mummy or daddy have not informed
03:12us that someone is coming.
03:20Every school has a playground.
03:22It may be big or small, but it is there.
03:26Sometimes, two schools that are close to each other share a playground.
03:35We should play in playground.
03:39We should not play in corridors, classrooms or staircase.
03:48The school bus transports us from our home to our school and from the school back to
03:55our home every day.
03:58There are many children in the bus.
04:02We should never disturb the driver.
04:06We should never get on or off a moving bus.
04:12We should always wait for our turn to get on or off a bus.
04:19We should not take our hands out of the window.
04:24Be safe on the road.
04:27A road connects different places.
04:32When we step out of our house to go to school, whether we walk or go by car or go by the
04:42school bus, we use the road.
04:47A road is always busy.
04:49Traffic moves on it all the time.
04:53Hence, we should not play on the road.
04:58How should we cross a road?
05:02We should cross a road only at the zebra crossing.
05:07All the main roads are painted with black and white stripes at some places.
05:15These are called zebra crossings.
05:19Be careful even if you are crossing the road at the zebra crossing.
05:27Cross the road only when traffic has cleared.
05:32Cross the road with an adult.
05:36Traffic lights are made for our safety.
05:41Always follow the signal given by the traffic lights.
05:47When the light is red, vehicles must stop.
05:54When the light is green, vehicles must move.
06:01A footpath is a narrow path on the side of the road.
06:06Always walk on the footpath.
06:12Now you know.
06:15There are certain things that we should do to stay safe.
06:21Never play with sharp and pointed things, matchsticks, objects made of glass, electrical
06:30gadgets, plugs and wires.
06:35Never play near a source of fire, in a balcony with railings and on the terrace.
06:45Never open the door to strangers.
06:50Do not run inside the classrooms, in the corridors or on the staircase.
06:59Cross the road only at the zebra crossing and only once the traffic has cleared.
07:08Always inform an adult if you get hurt.
