Children’s Firearms & Safety Fundamentals course is a FAMILY course. This means you can attend this course with the intention of passing on what you have learned to your children, OR, you can attend with them.
It is a comprehensive guide designed to address the topic of firearms and safety with kids of all ages, (as young and 3 and up – customizable due to age and maturity of the child) and to provide a positive, welcoming, and fun learning experience for youth – all while promoting the safe, responsible and ethical use of firearms.
This course provides the information and the skills you need for you, the parent, and for the young people with whom you share this – to be more confident, capable and safe with firearms.
This class in its entirety, covers the following topics, and takes 10 to 12 hours to complete. I will call you after you have signed up for part one and we will pick those modules that you feel best apply to you and your family.
Note that part 1 will take roughly 6 hours to complete. We can mix and match these modules to fit your needs. If you want to carry on with other modules and firearms disciplines, we can get you scheduled for any or all of the remaining modules of the class after you complete part 1.
The Fundamental Safety Lecture – this is a 3-hour seminar geared specifically towards the adults in a child’s life – whether that be parents/guardians, grandparents, aunts, uncles, family friends, etc. This portion of the class covers three important facets of safety:
Education » How, when and what parents should teach children about firearms safety
Prevention » Dispel myths surrounding firearms, look deeper into hospitalization data and preventable tragedies, and discuss safe firearms storage options
Action » Review and discuss realistic scenarios to help parents consider their risk mitigation options and put plans in place
Family-Focused Safety Series – this is a collection of nine, hour-long modules geared toward parents/adults and children of all ages. Any of these modules can be covered in the initial class (part 1) and are NOT limited to part 2. These modules are:
Accident Prevention and Safety Basics » An introduction to what safety is and the gun safety rules
Firearms Heritage and Use » The history of the Second Amendment and firearms use in America today
Firearms Safety Rules » The basics of what to do – and what not to do – with a firearm
Range Rules and Etiquette » What to expect on the range and how to act responsibly
Shooting Fundamentals » The seven shooting fundamentals
Firearms Familiarization: Long Guns » The parts, basic functions and fundamentals of long guns
Firearms Familiarization: Handguns » The parts, basic functions and fundamentals of handguns
Dry-Fire Practice » Dry-fire tools, preparation and drills
Situational Awareness » The CODE process and Color Codes of Awareness
We do require that those who wish to learn how to teach children have a solid foundational understanding of firearms and safety. To fulfill this, either a demonstration of proper firearms handling and safety as guided by an instructor, or completion of a fundamentals course are prerequisite to this course. Are you ready to become the instructor that your young loved ones need? Use this opportunity for your family to become better protected and prepared today!
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.
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, 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.
You will be provided with a ‘Training Certificate(s)’ upon successful completion of this course.
