Jun 14, 2017 at 14:46 comment added Narusan @michaeljt I was more like joking and making sure future visitors won't think that doing it on humans was a good idea. I assumed that you would know of issues if your qualified to teach first aid.

Jun 14, 2017 at 8:58 comment added michaeljt @L.B. Is it worth making that into a proper answer? I'm afraid I asked a question that is probably hard to provide good references for. @ Narusan Should I modify the question slightly? I meant to make clear that the pressing should not be done on a human, but perhaps I was not.
Jun 13, 2017 at 21:19 comment added Narusan As usually ribs are broken through CPR, I recommend @L.B.'s approach and would not use a human for practice. Although your kids might not be strong enough to break ribs, they could still challenge the heart by basically being a pacemaker.
Jun 13, 2017 at 14:58 comment added L.B. I think you are indeed on the right track as far as how to set things up. Possibly a bag filled with wet sand with a cushion over it might be an interesting texture to experiment with as well.
