I have a card that comes every year with my childs school pictures that I carry around in my wallet. It has a picture of my child, what to do if yur child is missing, and a blank fill in area for age, weight, height. etc. I received another
kit that has a finger print kit in it. Awesome Idea! I just want to share the things that you should make a list of and put in a safe place should your child ever become lost, or worse. It is better to do this now, then trying to think of all of these things when you could be under extreem duress.
Keep a envelope and include
A recent photo of your child, remember to update it often. Especially if your child gets a new hair cut, scar, braces, glasses. They grow very fast!
First, middle, last name, any nicknames, given by you or their friends
Address (if you share custody include the other parents address and phone number also)
Phone number
Birthdate
Hair Color (and description, short., long, streaked, etc)
Eye Color
Allergies
Identifiable marks, scars, birthmarks, moles, braces, glasses, list any fillings also, piercings.
Blood type
Current Medications, (asthma, diabetic, etc)
A lock of hair for DNA purposes
Fingerprints, you can buy a finger print kit, or use a stamp pad and do the best you can. Make sure there are no smears.
These are just a good start, you may want to include a currnet list of friends and relatives, names, address, phone numbers. Do this for each child in your home, you could also do this for your close friends children and family members especially if you baby sit for them
