Thanks for the tutorial! A strip of reflective material could be added to help see kids better who are walking or at the bus stop in the early morning😊

[@juliebraga1130]

Love your videos! Anyway you could do a video in how to make lanyards that are detachable? Looks like it's now becoming more mandatory in working with high risk population here in Canada. Thank you.

[@ScrappyPatch]

Great idea!

[@juliebraga1130]

@@ScrappyPatch They are also called breakaway lanyards. 🙂

[@meredithwarwick4202]

I would be concerned of using this lanyard around the neck of a younger child, as it could get caught and be a choking hazard. In that case, perhaps putting the end together with a little velcro or snap so that it would release when pulled on hard. I love the idea of putting the wristlet on a belt loop or attached to a backpack strap.

[@ScrappyPatch]

Great tip if you're making this for little kids!

[@azokalum]

You can purchase the safety release clip from online shops like ebay or Amazon if you'd like to have that peace of mind.

[@wuyanggroup7484]

patient is great.............

[@mayrarodriguez8488]

Would using heat bond work just to help give it strength?

[@ScrappyPatch]

You could, but I think it would make it to thick when you go to sew it together.

[@ymkymk4470]

work in same product , to be a friend with you

[@cleach5501]

There have been accidents where children have caught the lanyard on an object and have choked. A lot of schools in my province of Alberta Canada have banned lanyards that do have a safety release. This is a playground hazard.

[@ScrappyPatch]

You could always put velcro on them like one of my subscribers has suggested. Especially for the younger kids! Thanks for watching!
