Children's Firearms and Safety Fundamentals
How the next generation learns about firearms and firearm safety is not only important to them developing a healthy respect for firearms and appreciation for the safety involving them, but it is pivotal to the future of gun ownership in America.Â
Their experience can be an educational, welcoming one that sparks a lifelong appreciation and respect for firearms and the firearms community. Or it can be tainted by misinformation, fear and toxic bias. How they learn is up to you.
Every gun owner has to answer one vital question: Who do you trust to teach your kids and your family about firearms and gun safety? Who better to teach them than the ones who love them most and know them best - YOU!
Many Americans have chosen to simply hide knowledge about guns from our youth, creating not only a taboo that curious young minds may be attracted to, but also a potentially dangerous situation if the child were to encounter a firearm. But building a keen appreciation and respect for firearms from an early age is key to helping the next generation embrace their Second Amendment rights and build a safety-focused approach to firearms and many other things they may encounter.
This course will teach you how to make the topic of firearms and safety a positive, welcoming and fun experience for the entire family. You will learn how to introduce your own family to the world of situational awareness, firearms ownership, the gun-safety rules, basic terminology and an understanding of how to properly use firearms.
Whether you are a parent or a grandparent, other family member or family friend, you will feel confident in your ability to educate and empower the next generation to responsibly and safely handle firearms.
