Summer Safety for Kids

Bookmark and Share the Federal Citizen Information Center information on having great summer fun.  They recommend the following and provide great links for more information:

  • Brush up on your first aid.  Minor bumps and scrapes are common but still may need some first aid.  The sooner you catch an injury and let it heal, the sooner your kids can be back outside enjoying summer.  Learn how to identify more serious injuries.  They need to be treated immediately.
  • Teach your kids (and make sure you know) what poison ivy looks like.
  • Keep an eye on the temperature.  Remember sugary drinks actually can dehydrate you.
With preventative tips from the Federal Citizen Information Center you and your kids will be prepared no matter what happens.
