Summary It is necessary to enhance people's awareness of safety use of water front facilities such as tiered coastal works, artificial reeves and so on, in order to prevent injury. In this research, we investigated an efficient method for primary school children to learn how to use these facilities safely by instruction of safety use and experimental activities carried out in waterfront and we also carried out questionnaire and interview surveys to measuring effects.
