New road safety app for kids is out of this world

Road Safety Scotland has launched a new road safety app for kids aged 8-11. It’s called ‘KLANG: The Road Home’ and it’s free to download for anyone in the UK. The app aims to encourage positive learning and an understanding of road safety through gaming technology, delivering important road safety messages that will keep users engaged with the technology while linking to the curriculum, offering added benefits for pupils, teachers and parents alike.

The new game sees alien robot Klang crash land on earth from a nearby galaxy. To fix his ship and make his way home to planet Fendaar, he needs help to safely navigate our busy streets to find the missing parts – all the while avoiding discovery from rogue detection officers.

‘KLANG: The Road Home’ is available to download here from the app store and Google Play for iOS and Android. More information on the app and Road Safety Scotland can be found at jrso.com.
