As a result of the recent growth in children’s spaces in urban entertainment centers targeting family customers, the concerns on child loss

factors that prevent child loss in urban entertainment centers. In addition, it was finalized by deleting and editing the list that has no effect
on child loss or problems in performance through consultations with experts. This guideline suggests the method of preventing child loss in
the direction(aim) of the prevention required for each process of children getting lost, finding directions, and discovering their guardians. In
other words, it focuses on enhancing guardian’s child-watching, and preventing children’s breakaway in the aspect of children getting lost.
The guideline also concentrates on improving children’s wayfinding abilities and employee’s searching abilities in the aspect of children
finding directions and reuniting with their guardians. |
