Winnie & Wally!
At Watch for Me CT, we believe the best way to keep our communities safe is by teaching safe habits early. Winnie’s role is to show grown-ups how important it is to lead by example, while her joey, Wally reminds us that little eyes are always watching and learning. Together, they help families talk about safety in a fun, memorable way.
Don't have a New Year's resolution yet? Here's an idea: Talk with your child about pedestrian safety and model good behavior. A few minutes of conversation and consistent habits—like using crosswalks, putting phones away, and looking both ways—can make a lasting difference.

It’s no coincidence that pedestrian fatalities increase when the sun goes down. Follow Winnie and Wally’s lead and plan your walks for daylight hours whenever possible.
