Having kids wear the house key around their necks poses two dangerous risks. KeyKatz Child's Safe Key Holder prevents both.
1. Prevents strangulation. Children love to play - in playgrounds, on slides, on monkey bars, even up in trees. They also like to wrestle and play with pets a lot. The obvious risk of the lanyard/string getting caught and strangled around the child's neck is apparent during these various activities. The Consumer Federation of America, as expressed through this document, said "ropes, jump ropes, strings, lanyards and leashes, either attached to equipment or being worn around a child's neck have also been implicated in strangulation deaths." KeyKatz solves this problem by allowing the child to carry the key safely inside the KeyKatz and not around their neck.
2. Prevents dangerous people from knowing that the child is home alone. Wearing a key around the neck isn't only a risk for strangulation, publicly displaying a key exposes the fact that the child is a latchkey kid, and will be left home alone. Don't give it a second thought, KeyKatz helps keep kids safe during these times.
The KeyKatz features a small, cute, kitty or other animal friend that provides a hiding place for both a key and lunch money.
The KeyKatz is a wristband, which can be attached to a backpack, a belt loop, a three ring binder, or a zipperpull on a jacket or other clothing.
To unlock the door, just pull the key out of KeyKatz. Pull kitty's tail to make the key go back in its pouch, and ready for the next use. You don't have to remove KeyKatz from the backpack, wrist, or wherever it's attached.
KeyKatz attaches to any zipper like a side pocket zipper or a jacket's front zipper.
