And please teach them your first and last names!! I work in retail and when a lost child tells you that mommy's name is Mommy it makes it incredibly hard to call you over the intercom.
As soon as my son could grasp the concept he was able to recite mom and dad's first and last names, our phone number and our address. Every time we were in a super busy or crowded place I would also be sure to point out the uniforms of employees/security guards as we walked around.

Reply to LPT: If you have young children you should teach them your phone number as early as 4 years old. However long it takes- using picture cards or any other learning tricks, you should make them memorize it. That way if they ever get lost etc., they can ask a store employee to call you. by v-shizzle
