Dutch children have to be taught how to fall. Children nowadays are more likely to injure themselves when they fall, because they are not used to playing outside anymore and they are becoming fatter.
The number of children that have broken bones or been taken to hospital with head injuries in recent years has doubled to 39,000. As a result a Dutch consumer and safety foundation has developed training sessions for primary schools to teach children how to fall. It is hoped these techniques will reduce the number of injuries by half.
