Halloween Safety Tips from the American Academy of Pediatrics
Today's site, HealthyChildren.org, from the reputable American Academy of
Pediatrics offers prudent advice for keeping children safe this Halloween.
Gentle Subscribers will find an informative article for both those stationed at
home and those on escort duty with little trick-or-treaters.
"Children are eager to get back to their normal routines, and Halloween fun is
a big part of that. But many children are not yet vaccinated, and many are
still too young to get the COVID-19 vaccine, so it makes sense to be careful
again this Halloween." - from the American Academy of Pediatrics
With a colorful and friendly style, the report provides a useful overview of
sensible suggestions for keeping children safe. These cover the essentials --
costumes, pumpkins, and going on the trick-or-treat trail, while noting small
items that may prove hazardous. The Healthy Halloween section focuses on
practical advice in a general sense, including rationing treats, options for
children with food allergies, and the necessity for a thorough inspection of
all treats. In addition, there's direct access to specific guidelines for
keeping children safe during the ongoing pandemic.
