FUN FACTS

1

Allergy Season

The period from early Spring to late Fall can be difficult for children and teens with seasonal allergies. AVOIDANCE is key. Keep doors closed and check pollen counts daily. Make sure that you have an antihistamine medication so that you can continue to enjoy the summer of your dreams.

2

Water Safety

Did you know that DROWNING is the #1 cause of death in children ages 1-4 years? Never allow them to get too close to rapidly moving stream and rivers. The current is very strong and can sweep them away even if they know how to swim. Make SUPERVISION a PRIORITY.

3

Bike Helmets

Did you know that helmets FITTED PROPERLY and WORN CORRECTLY can reduce the risk of brain injury by 85%? A head injury can permanently change the way a child walks, talks, plays and thinks. Make sure that the bike helmet fits flat on the head and fits snug, so that the straps make a triangle around the rear. Remember, injury prevention is everyone's business.

4

Street Safety

  • Always cross the street at intersections. DO not jaywalk.
  • Used marked crosswalks when available.
  • Look both ways before crossing the street.
  • For children under 5, adults should HOLD THEIR HANDS and not the child hold the adults' hand.

5

Dog Bite Prevention

Children are by far, the most common victims of dog bites and are far more likely to be severely injured. Most dog bites affecting young children occur during everyday activities and while interacting with familiar dogs. Follow these steps to stay safe:

  • Always ask permission from the pet owner and your parent before petting any dog.
  • Don't run past a dog. Dogs naturally love to chase and catch things. Don't give them a reason to become excited or aggressive.
  • Never disturb a dog that's caring for her puppies, sleeping or eating.
  • Never reach through or over a fence to pet a dog. Dogs can be protective of their territory, and may interpret your action as a threat.
  • If a dog approaches to sniff you, stay still, in most cases, the dog will go away when it determines you are not a threat.
  • If you are threatened by a dog, remain calm. Don't scream or yell. If you say anything, speak calmly and firmly. Avoid eye contact. Try to stay still until the dog leaves, or back away slowly until the dog is out of sight. Don't turn and run.
  • If you fall or are knocked to the ground, curl into a ball. Cover your ears with your hands. Protect your face.
