This is Safe Kids Week in Alberta.
Foothills Regional E-M-S has joined with Safe Kids Canada to raise awareness of everyday dangers.
Katherine McKenzie with FREMS says recent statistics have shown that the number of children injured or killed each year has dropped over the last ten years.
But she says they want to make parents aware there are still dangers..
She says ambulance crews will keep an eye open for youngsters who are biking, rollerblading or skateboarding safely.
