Master water safety

Water-related activities are popular for getting physical activity and have many health benefits. Here are some tips to stay safe while having fun.
·         Learn how to prevent recreational water illnesses and help protect yourself and your kids.
·         Help kids get H2O Smartz about water safety.
·         Always supervise children when in or around water. A responsible adult should constantly watch young children.
·         Teach kids to swim. Formal swimming lessons can protect young children from drowning.
·         Learn cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Your CPR skills could save someone’s life.
·         Install a four-sided fence around home pools.
·         Wear a properly fitted life jacket every time you and your loved ones are on the water.

  Beat the heat and sun
·         Never leave infants, children, or pets in a parked car, even if the windows are cracked open.
·         Dress infants and children in loose, lightweight, light-colored clothing.
·         Schedule outdoor activities carefully, for morning and evening hours.
·         Stay cool with cool showers or baths.
·         Seek medical care immediate if your child has symptoms of heat-related illness.
·         Cover up. Clothing that covers yours and your child's skin helps protect against UV rays.
·         Use sunscreen with at least SPF (sun protection factor) 15 and UVA (ultraviolet A) and UVB (ultraviolet B) protection every time you and your child go outside.

Drowning are the leading cause of injury death for young children ages 1 to 4, and three children die every day as a result of drowning.
Recreational boating can be a wonderful way to spend time with family and friends. Make boating safety a priority.
Heat-related illness happens when the body’s temperature control system is overloaded. Infants and children up to 4 years of age are at greatest risk. Even young and healthy people can get sick from the heat if they participate in strenuous physical activities during hot weather. For heat-related illness, the best defense is prevention.
Just a few serious sunburns can increase you and your child's risk of skin cancer later in life. Their skin needs protection from the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays whenever they're outdoors.
