Information for parents
WegWijsVR is a training in the form of a game. Your child is practicing virtually in traffic with the help of a tablet or mobile phone. In this simulated environment, children can explore the traffic safely and in a game-like way. In this way they learn to cope better with unexpected situations that they also encounter in their own cycling or walking trip to school.
The WegWijsVR app is:
1. Safe
Your child is practicing virtually and you can look over his or her shoulder. This way you can see exactly which traffic situations your child still finds difficult. You can pay extra attention to that if you participate in traffic together.
2. Instructive
By regularly exercising your child increases his or her traffic ability. This is important if they are to participate independently in traffic.
3. Cool
The app is in game form and therefore attractive for children. They can earn points by completing the assignments well. And they can share the points with friends. Who has the most points?
