Walkodile

A Walkodile is a child safety device primarily designed for use by teachers and caregivers to manage groups of young children on outings. It consists of a series of brightly colored fabric loops or handles connected by a central webbing or rope. Children each hold onto a loop or handle, allowing the adult supervisor to maintain control and prevent children from wandering off in public spaces. The design typically features a harness system or secure method of attachment for each child, ensuring they cannot easily detach themselves without assistance.

Walkodiles are often used in preschools, nurseries, and daycare centers for trips to parks, museums, or other locations where maintaining a tight group is essential for safety. The visual nature of the device, often resembling a colorful caterpillar or train, can also make it appealing to children and help them understand the importance of staying together. While the primary function is safety, some models may incorporate elements that promote coordination and cooperation among the children. The term "Walkodile" may be trademarked or associated with specific manufacturers of this type of child safety device.
