What earthquake-proof and self-help methods should children master when encountering an earthquake?

The circle of friends was screened by the news of Jiuzhaigou earthquake. Everyone is praying for the compatriots in the earthquake zone, hoping that everything will get better as soon as possible! I also pray that the compatriots who died will rest in peace and go all the way, and I hope that the families of the victims can mourn!

No one wants disaster, but we can't stop natural disasters. What we can do is to learn some skills and knowledge of self-protection as much as possible to avoid unnecessary casualties.

Children are the hope of everything, and we can't always be with them for care and care, so it is very necessary to teach children some basic knowledge of self-protection. Seeing the news of Jiuzhaigou earthquake, I can't help asking myself: How should children protect themselves when the earthquake comes? By looking up a lot of information, I summarized the following points:

First, explain earthquake-related knowledge to children.

The first thing is to let children know about earthquakes, and there is an earthquake-related concept in their minds. We can use network resources to let children know what an earthquake is in vivid and easy-to-understand language. Combine pictures and videos to show children the harm caused by the earthquake and deepen their understanding.

Second, teach children the knowledge and methods about earthquake prevention, earthquake resistance and disaster reduction.

1. Teach children the knowledge and methods to deal with earthquakes through nursery rhymes.

Example 1 of children's songs:

Don't panic when the building shakes. Don't jump off a building or open a window. Squat in a good corner, run away according to the instructions and walk safely to the playground.

In case of being buried, don't be nervous, don't cry, don't panic, first prevent your body from getting hurt less, find water, food, place and save your strength.

Example 2 of children's songs:

You shoot one, I shoot one, and you have to learn to save yourself from the earthquake. You shoot two, I shoot two, calm down and don't be afraid. You shoot three, I shoot three, and spread out safely and orderly. You shoot four, I shoot four, evacuation is better than drilling the table. You clap five, I clap five, and you are trapped in the ruins, covering your mouth. You shoot six, I shoot six, I believe I will be saved. You shoot seven, I shoot seven, don't worry until help comes. You clap eight, I clap eight, and climb out if possible. You clap nine, I clap nine, and I hear a cry for help. You clap ten, I clap ten, overcoming difficulties is your insistence.

2. Through drills, videos, picture books, parent-child questions and answers, etc. Tell the child the specific coping methods.

Building shock absorber

1) When the earthquake comes, children should take refuge in small rooms such as kitchen, bathroom and storage room nearby.

2) Hiding in walls, corners or under relatively hard furniture such as beds and tables. Never jump off a building.

3) After the earthquake, in order to prevent aftershocks, evacuate from the safe passage (stairs) to the open area outside the building in an orderly and rapid manner, and do not take the elevator.

Classroom shock absorption

1) In case of an earthquake during class, children should take refuge on the spot, cover their heads with schoolbags or books and hide under desks.

2) After the earthquake, move to the playground in an orderly manner under the command of the teacher, and don't push when going downstairs. Children on the first floor can run out of the classroom quickly. In the playground or outdoors, you can squat down in place and protect your head with your hands. Don't go back to the classroom

Shockproof in shopping malls

If children encounter earthquakes in shopping malls, exhibitions and bookstores, they should try to hide in columns or corners and avoid dangerous objects such as glass windows, advertising light boxes, tall shelves and chandeliers. After the earthquake, follow the instructions of the staff and evacuate in an orderly manner.

Theater shock absorption

If you encounter an earthquake in a gymnasium or theater, the shock absorption method is: children should protect their heads in time and squat or lie under the row chairs.

Outdoor shock absorption

If children encounter an earthquake outdoors, they should avoid dangerous things such as tall buildings (especially glass curtain walls), towers and chimneys, avoid cliffs and prevent rocks from rolling and landslides. Don't go back indoors casually.

Third, children's earthquake self-help methods

1, children must not cry, pay attention to save their strength.

2. Keep faith, keep calm, and wait patiently for help when you can't get out of trouble for a while.

3. Keep breathing unobstructed. Try to pull out your hands and remove debris from your head and chest, as well as dust near your nose and mouth.

4. Cover your nose and mouth with wet clothes when you smell gas and toxic gas to prevent accidental impact and smoke suffocation.

5. Expand and strengthen the living space. Use bricks, sticks, etc. Support the compressed space, prevent the aftershock from causing heavy objects to fall and further collapse, and ensure the living space.

6. Try to get out of danger. Save your strength as much as possible. From time to time, hit objects that can make sound with stones, bricks, etc. Send a distress signal.

7. Don't use indoor facilities casually, including power supply and water source. , and don't use open flames;

8. Close your eyes and rest, waiting for help.

9. Maintain life. Try to find food and drinking water, and urine can quench your thirst if necessary.

Generally speaking, it is these aspects that everyone should learn and use quickly, so that children can master more self-help methods and knowledge and improve their viability.
