Since 1994, the Lil’ Iguana’s Children’s Safety Foundation has created music driven prevention programs to keep kids safe.
Lil’ Iguana is a music driven program that teaches children important safety lessons like Get Permission, Harm Alarm, Who’s a Stranger, and Run, Run, Run, Yell & Tell. Lil’ Iguana’s educational prevention programs are presented in elementary schools, child care facilities, and at community events throughout New England & along the East Coast.
For over 20 years, the Lil’ Iguana’s Children’s Safety Foundation has created several prevention programs to keep kids safe from abduction, child predators, and serious accidental injuries. Some programs include Lil’ Iguana Live!, Lil’ Iguana’s in-classroom program, the award-winning “Be Smart, Stay Safe” educational DVD, an Emmy award-winning television series, as well as other safety educational products.

Testimonials
Because of the Lil’ Iguana program our daughter is still with us today, and although our story has a happy ending we also understand that we could have lost our youngest child.
Many programs attempt to teach young children about safety. Lil’ Iguana’s unique approach not only succeeds at it, but enables them to retain the lessons for years afterward.
Lil’ Iguana is the most effective safety program I have ever seen for elementary school children.
My three year old boy was sexually molested by a child care provider. Because of the Lil’ Iguana program, he was brave enough to come forward even after being threatened.
