Kitchen Safety For Young Kids Information and tips to protect children in the kitchen from the oven, microwave, and appliances. http://www.uwyo.edu/family/HEALTHYC/HEALTH/Kitche~1.htm
Extractions: Kitchen Safety For Young Children The kitchen can be a dangerous place for young kids. It is important to carefully supervise your child in the kitchen as he or she begins to walk and become curious. In daycare centers it is important that infants and toddlers be restricted from being in the kitchen. Prevention is the key to avoid injuries, burns, and even fatality. The following items are ways to protect your child and the children in your care, in the kitchen from the oven, microwave, and appliances. Oven and Ranges It is important to keep pot handles turned in towards the back of the stove. This will prevent a child from grabbing onto the handle and pulling the pot onto themselves. Hot items should be kept at a safe distance from children by using highchairs, child safety gates, and playpens. Check to see where they are before you move a hot or heavy item. If toddlers are present, tablecloths and placemats should be removed because they can pull everything down on top of themselves. Be sure that children cannot climb onto cabinets, counters, or rangetops. Children should be kept out of the kitchen when the oven is being used. The oven door could burn the child as they lean or fall against it especially if they grab onto the door as they are learning to walk. They may be unable to let go and will get burned.

Bicycle Helmets And Carriers For Children safely. Safe kids has a Web server up with more info on child safety. This page was last revised on November 13, 2003. Contact us. http://www.bhsi.org/child.htm
Extractions: Bicycle Helmet Safety Institute Research is lacking on the impact tolerance of a child's brain, but studies are in progress. Current child helmets seem to perform well despite indications from some researchers that the foam may be too stiff. Toddlers may not be able to support the weight of a heavy helmet. If in doubt, take helmet and child to your pediatrician and ask. Although some safety advocates recommend against mounting child seats on a bicycle, several states require a helmet on the child if you do. Helmets for children transported in child seats or trailers should never be the "aero" shape, since the tail hits the back of the seat and forces the child's head downward. You may have to put a cushion behind the child's back to prevent this. If a child dozes in a seat or trailer their head may loll around, which pediatricians say is not good, so either provide a cushion on the sides or some other means to prevent this or be prepared to stop whenever the child gets sleepy, which may not be practical.

Extractions: A first-of-its-kind study, commissioned by the Defeat the Heat public safety campaign and presented today at the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) annual meeting, found that two-thirds of children arrived at sports practice significantly dehydrated which put them at increased medical risk for more serious heat illnesses such as heat exhaustion and heat stroke. To help prevent these serious injuries, Defeat the Heat launched its summer dehydration prevention efforts with a new public service announcement featuring Dan Marino, father of six and former Miami Dolphins quarterback.
