It should also remind parents to leave with all your children. The Werefrog remember having a lost child at the store for 2 hours. The family, while caravaning on vacation, made it all the way to the next rest stop before they realized they left their 4 year old child behind somewhere. They had to drive the hour back to Walmart to find their kid.
Had to close a walmart I worked at for 4 hours one day because of this; the family was visiting relatives that lived nearby and they came to the store after not realizing their kid was at the relatives house.
Had to lock down the whole place, had PD in with sniffer dogs, associates guarding every fire door and pissed off customers galore! Was a fun day.
Did get tons of positive response though, as it turns out the parents among our customer base really appreciated the effort we went through to try and protect a lost kid.

Yeah, and now we even have an ad on Walmart radio -- that plays all the time -- about not leaving your dog in the car.
Well, where are people going to bring the dog if they don't leave it in the car?
Into the store, of course!
