If you're not confident you can do it without hurting yourself then ask an adult for help.

Common sense is required for many things, this is no different.

Don't play with anything that goes bang then - you can't afford for shit to happen.

Aye, not something for children to be near.
But this is PSHTF, and you wouldn't stick one near your front door, would you?

If you use battery method to deliver the required charge, then you could feasibly have an "On/Off" switch located somewhere.

Butcher a PIR sensor, and you've got a motion activated one, just like a claymore (ssshhhhhhhh.....)

am a bit of a technophobe and anything that relies on elecktrickery/batteries will one day fail....scares me so i'll stick with trip wires and mechanical options.

better get em trained before TSHTF then if you don't want to lose any, POST SHTF they'll have to follow orders/instructions if they want to survive. course, not that its any of my business what you do, I haven't got any kids so not a problem that's going to affect me.
