At the pool – Always actively supervise children in and around water \u2013 do not take your eyes off them. <\/strong>Infants and children can drown in bathtubs, swimming pools, ponds or almost any other place where water collects.<\/p>\n

Sun Safety at the park – <\/strong>Children’s skin and eyes are more sensitive to ultraviolet rays. Babies should be protected from direct sun entirely. Toddlers, preschoolers and older children should be covered well in sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) at least one half hour before going out in the sun. Sunscreen should be reapplied every hour, especially if they are in the water. \u00a0Don’t forget ears, hands, feet, lips and under the eyes. Also, make sure your child wears a hat and sunglasses when out in the sun for any length of time.<\/p>\n

Healthy Eating \u2013 Staying hydrated <\/strong>The little ones, especially, forget to drink or to tell you that they need to drink. If you find the children getting cranky toward the afternoon, it might be because they’re tired, or it might be because they’re dehydrated. Common symptoms of dehydration are crankiness and headaches. Offer water throughout the day.\u00a0 And don\u2019t forget to drink water yourself.<\/p>\n

Driving – Hot Cars: Don’t EVER leave\u00a0children alone in the car — not even for a moment – <\/strong>the temperature in a car can skyrocket in minutes. And, if you see an unattended young child in a vehicle, please call 911, the police or other emergency personnel.
