The paper deals with safety aspects of pre-school children exercising rock-climbing activities in natural crags. For this purpose, the sample consisted of 30 parties of pre-school children (protected) and adults (belayers). Climbing safety was de-fined with attribute variables referrig to climbing equipment and its handling. Data were collected by means of a check-list and an informal questionnaire. We have found that children have 30% better equipment than adults, but children whose parents have better equipment, do not necessarily have better equipment themselves. The results showed that 90% of adults are formally educated climbers, but not all of them use helmets. We wish to emphasize that a complete adult equipment and its proper use not only set examples for children, but have direct impact on safety as well.
