Ollie's Itinerary

Book Ollie

The Ollie Otter Program shares the message of booster seat and seat belt safety with elementary school students across the state. Traditionally, Ollie has traveled to these schools with his friends to provide in-person presentations to classrooms and gymnasiums filled with students. Now, Ollie has a virtual option – Ollie LIVE! This option has allowed Ollie even more access to students, and provided even more opportunities for volunteers to get involved in the program. These virtual presentations are conducted through live streams with Ollie and his friends, and all that is required is a computer with stable internet connection in your classroom.

Ollie and his friends are ready to share safety information through a virtual, Ollie LIVE! presentation, or by visiting your school!

Media

Ollie LIVE! is Online!

Schedule a virtual or in-person visit from Ollie and his friends to teach your class about booster seat, seat belt, and roadway safety.

Schedule

Ensure your classroom has a stable internet connection and monitor for your class to view and interact with our virtual presentation. Ensure the website https://streamyard.com/ is not blocked by your school. Please Contact Us with any questions concerning these steps.

 

Once your school or classroom has been added to the schedule, you will receive a link to be used the day and time of your presentation. Click the link and we will do the rest! 


For more information, please reference this Ollie LIVE! Checklist/Flyer…

Ollie Otter presentations always include Ollie and at least one of his friends. This friend will either be an Ollie Coordinator, Tennessee Tech Student, or an Ollie Volunteer. When possible, Ollie’s friends from the Tennessee Road Builders Association, Tennessee Highway Patrol, or the Tennessee Highway Safety Office may join the presentation as well.

 

Students will learn four lessons about child passenger and traffic safety: 

  • “Slow Down” in construction zones to keep Tennessee Road Builders safe.
  • Hands Free Tennessee states that drivers cannot hold devices while driving.
  • “Always Buckle Up” and make sure the seat belts hits you “Belts to Bones.”
  • If you are “Under 4’9”, It’s Booster Time!”

 

In both Ollie LIVE! and in person Ollie presentations, students are asked to join in call-and-response activities while incorporating movement for remembering these lessons, and the presentation ends with an Ollie cheer. 

 

Presentations last approximately 15-30 minutes depending on the medium and group size.

Ollie is always looking for Volunteers ready to help out with presentations. Visit our Volunteer page to learn more about how to get involved!

"A lot of times these kids force their parents to comply with the law and force them to set an example by relaying some of the information that has been taught to them. They’ll tell their daddy “you can’t drive without wearing your seat belt.” We know that has saved lives of adults who had children go through the program, so it’s a win-win for us. Our main responsibility as an organization is to lower the mortality rate and we’ve had tremendous success over the last 7 or 8 years while I’ve been the colonel and a lot of that goes to programs like the Ollie Otter program."
Colonel Tracy TrottRETIRED TN HIGHWAY PATROL COLONEL
“We try to educate our students so they will go home to their parents, the parents will learn from the kids. Ollie is a great way to teach seat belt safety.”
Mr. ClintonHIGHLAND PARK PRINCIPAL
“Ollie teaches seat belt, booster seat, and roadway safety in a fun way for the kids. They will remember to use their seatbelts and remind their families to use them also.”
Carol GabyPRE-SCHOOL TEACHER
“Not only does the Ollie Otter Child Safety Foundation teach students safety laws, but it also reinforces and educates the children’s parents. Parents are not given a manual, they do not know the rules.”
Diane WaufaurdLipscomb Elementary
“We are so glad Ollie came to visit again this year. We actually have a student whose booster seat saved his life.”
