Is there an educational component of the campaign geared specifically toward Georgia’s children?
Children are often the best motivators for change. They are also fast learners. The Ready Georgia Web site contains a localized ReadyKids page with interactive games, videos and more. Ready Kids was launched by the national Ready campaign in 2006 as a tool to help parents and teachers educate children ages 8 – 12 about emergencies and how they can help get their family prepared. The program includes a family-friendly Web site, ready.gov/kids, and in-school materials developed by Scholastic Inc. and Discovery Education. The campaign mascot, Rex, is also available for community appearances and more.
