More than 1 million children are killed or injured each year in preventable traffic, household and recreational accidents.

In an effort to reduce this number, Nalley Honda is hosting Child Safety Awareness Day at its dealership on Saturday from 10 a.m.-2 p.m.

Child Safety Awareness Day offers families important advice and hands-on instruction on a variety of issues including vehicle and traffic safety, sport and recreational injuries and preventing child abductions.

Additionally, attendees can learn the proper installation of child safety seats and the correct use of seatbelts. Union City leaders will also provide demonstrations and informative talks on child safety issues.

"Honda started Child safety Awareness Day last year because education and prevention are two of the best ways to keep families safe," said Dick Colliver, executive vice president of American Honda Motor Co., Inc.

Nalley Honda is located at 4197 Jonesboro Rd. in Union City. For more information, call Joe Triola at 770-306-4600.
