Focus on Holiday Health & Safety

The holiday season is a great time to talk about safety—at your home or where you're celebrating. Young children are curious and fearless, and without a reminders, they can easily forget the dangers involved.
Review these holiday health and safety tips covering trees, kitchens, fireplaces, toys, decorations, and more!
P.S. – Kids are more vulnerable to food poisoning, so it’s especially important to teach them not to eat cookie dough containing raw eggs.
