How it Works
A maximum of six children each wear a high visibility, adjustable harness and are connected to the flexible spine via a secure two way clip located on the harness. Each child holds a handle with one hand, supervisors put on their high visibility vests and everyone's ready to go.
On reaching their destination the children are unclipped from the central spine. They continue to wear their high visibility harness for their lesson or play so they are more easily seen in large open spaces or built up areas.
When finished, the children are clipped back into WALKODILE® ready for their journey back to school or nursery.
