Oyster shells, mosquito bites, blisters, stubbed toes â to name a few potential sores from summer adventures.
It's easy to overlook these when youâre busy with the kids, and before you know it, you might need a doctorâs appointment and antibiotics. A quick daily check can make a big difference.
Encourage your tamariki to check their tinana for scrapes and sores, clean them early, and keep them covered. Small checks now can prevent bigger hassles later đ
