Article: On Sunday in Bat Yam, Israel, a bus was driving its normal route. A passenger noticed a backpack by itself in the back of the bus and thought that seemed suspicious. He opened the backpack and saw wires and a pot. The passenger immediately notified the bus driver, who told all the passengers to get off right away and called the police. 10 minutes later, while the police were dealing with the situation, the bus and bomb exploded. No one was hurt except for one of the policemen, who was slightly injured.
Discussion:
- Discuss all the different people in the story who were courageous.
- Discuss how the passenger and bus driver were very smart in how they reacted to the abandoned backpack. Discuss one thing the passenger probably should not have done (opened the backpack) and why.
- Role play scenarios where something similar happens and what your kids should do (immediately inform an adult or policeman of suspicious packages). Everyone has the ability to save lives.
