As Chol Hamoed begins, Lakewood Shomrim is reminding families to prioritize safety while enjoying outings and trips.
Shomrim emphasizes three key tips to ensure the wellbeing of children:
The first tip encourages parents to take a clear photo of their child before heading out for the day. This simple precaution can be crucial in helping authorities or security personnel locate a missing child quickly in crowded places.
Additionally, parents should ensure that each child carries their parent or guardian’s contact information. Whether written on a card or a bracelet, having this information readily accessible helps reunite lost children with their families more efficiently.

Finally, the message stresses the importance of never leaving children unattended under any circumstances. Whether in public spaces or waiting in lines for rides, a child should always be in the care of a responsible adult to prevent accidents or separation.
In the event of an emergency, Shomrim’s 24/7 emergency hotline is available to assist. The hotline number is 732-367-1212.
