Playground Safety
Going to the park or playground? Make sure to consider the condition of the equipment. A recent study by the AAP of playgrounds in Chicago showed one third to one half failed safety inspections1. The inspection included age appropriate design, ground surfacing, equipment maintenance and physical environment. 
Sun Safety
With the warmer weather approaching, many of us are spending more time outdoors. Apply sunscreen any time your child will be outside for more than 30 minutes. Infants under 6 months of age should be kept out of direct sunlight.
