Oftentimes, parents opt for practical clothes in dark colors thus risking the safety of their kids. Not only can they lose their kid in a crowd, but also drivers might fail to see a little pedestrian in the darkness. The more light-reflecting elements kids’ clothes have, the better.

Here in Estonia, policemen check every kid near preschools and kindergartens by directing a flashlight beam at them when it’s still dark in the morning. Those who have light-reflecting elements are praised, those who don’t have them are given these elements for free. It’s forbidden to wear clothes without light reflectors — it’s broadcast here every now and then. It gets dark early, winters are snowy, the darkness is so severe that your eyes start to hurt if you try to look into the distance for a while. © Ninaninja / Pikabu
