Tip Tuesday: Winter Nutrition for a Strong Immune System
Winter weather can be tough on little immune systems — shorter days, cold air, and indoor germs can leave kids more susceptible to sniffles and fatigue. The good news? A few simple nutrition tips can go a long way in keeping your kids healthy and energized this season!

1. Power up with Vitamin C 🍊🍓🥝
Vitamin C helps support the immune system and can make it easier for kids to fight off common winter bugs. Try incorporating:
Oranges or clementines for a sweet snack
Strawberries or kiwi in yogurt or oatmeal
Red bell peppers or broccoli in lunch or dinner

2. Keep meals cozy and nourishing 🥣🍲
Warm soups, stews, and whole-grain dishes aren’t just comforting, they’re nutrient-packed! These meals:
Provide essential vitamins and minerals
Help kids stay full and energized
Keep bodies warm during chilly winter days

3. Small, frequent meals & healthy snacks 🍏🥕
Offer small, frequent portions to keep energy steady
Include fruits, veggies, and whole grains
Pair with protein like cheese, eggs, or lean meats to help maintain focus and stamina
Extra Tip: Hydration matters too! Even in winter, kids need plenty of water — warm herbal teas or milk can also help keep them hydrated.

🩺 Parent Takeaway: Supporting your child’s nutrition during winter is one of the easiest ways to strengthen their immune system and keep them feeling their best. These simple swaps and additions to meals can make a big difference!

❄️ Frostbite Safety Tips for Kids ❄️
With single-digit temperatures, frostbite can happen faster than you think... especially during sledding and snow play.

Parents should watch for:
🧊 Cold, numb, or tingly skin
🔴⚪ Skin that turns red, pale, white, or grayish
😖 Complaints of pain or burning, followed by numbness
✋ Hard or waxy-looking skin (often on fingers, toes, ears, nose, cheeks)
Some of the most common areas affected include little fingers, toes, face and ears.

Prevention tips for parents:
🧤 Dress children in layers and cover any exposed skin
🧦 Change wet socks or gloves immediately
⏱️ Have children take frequent warm-up breaks indoors
🧣 Use hats, mittens, and face coverings (mittens are warmer than gloves!)

🚨 When to act: 🚨
If skin is numb or changing color, go indoors right away
Gently warm the area—never rub frostbitten skin
Seek medical care if symptoms don’t improve or blisters appear
Stay safe out there, bundle up and have fun! 🙌

Due to the current inclement weather, our office will be closed tomorrow, Monday, January 26th. Thank you for your understanding, and please stay safe!

❄️ Winter Storm Prep Tips for Parents ❄️
With a major snowstorm expected this weekend, a little preparation can help keep your family safe and comfortable:
🧺 Stock up early – Make sure you have essentials like diapers, wipes, formula, medications, batteries, and easy-to-make meals on hand.
🔦 Prepare for power outages – Charge devices, gather flashlights, and keep extra blankets accessible.
🥾 Get winter gear ready – Check that coats, boots, hats, gloves, and snow pants still fit and are easy to grab.
🚗 Prep the car – Fill the gas tank, pack an emergency kit, and bring car seats inside if temps drop extremely low.
🏠 Stay warm at home – Seal drafts, set thermostats appropriately, and keep extra layers available for kids.
🧩 Plan for indoor fun – Download movies, charge tablets, and set aside games, crafts, or books to keep kids entertained if plans change.
📱 Stay informed – Monitor weather updates and school or activity closures.
A little planning now means more peace of mind when the snow starts falling. Stay safe and warm! ☃️💙

🥶 Extreme Cold Weather & Kids: What Parents Should Know 🧣
With negative-degree temperatures this week, a little extra prep goes a long way in keeping kids safe and comfortable:

⏱️ Limit outdoor time – Keep play short and take frequent warm-up breaks
🧴 Protect exposed skin – Use fragrance-free moisturizer and lip balm
🧦 Keep feet warm & dry – Thick socks and dry boots are key

Tip Tuesday: Resetting Sleep After the Holidays 💤
Between late nights, travel, and time off, many kids’ sleep schedules can get a little off track over the holidays — and that’s totally normal!

As we head back to school and daycare, a gradual sleep reset can make mornings easier and help kids feel more focused, rested, and ready to learn.
Try adjusting bedtime and wake-up times by 15–20 minutes each night until you’re back on schedule. Consistency is key!

If you have questions about sleep, routines, or your child’s health as you transition back, our team at Olentangy Pediatrics is always here to help 💙

🎉 Tip Tuesday: Kid-Friendly New Year’s Countdown
You don’t have to make it to midnight to celebrate the New Year — especially with little ones!
✨ Try an early countdown:
• Do a “fake” New Year’s countdown at 7 or 8 PM
• Use a prerecorded ball drop or countdown video
• Celebrate with cheers, noise makers, or a special treat
⏰ Why parents love it:
Kids still feel included in the fun, and bedtime routines stay mostly intact. Everyone rings in the New Year happy — and well-rested.
Here’s to a fun, safe, and sleep-friendly start to the New Year! 🥳💤

🎄 Tip Tuesday: Holiday Toy Safety Edition 🧸
With new toys, gift wrap, and packaging everywhere this week, it’s important to keep little ones safe during the holiday excitement.
✨ Watch for choking hazards, especially for babies and toddlers:
🔵Small toy parts, buttons, batteries (including button batteries), and beads
🔵Plastic wrap, bows, ribbon, and tape
🔵Packaging materials like plastic ties or foam pieces
👶 A good rule of thumb: if it fits through a toilet paper roll, it’s a choking risk.
Before playtime begins, take a few minutes to unwrap, inspect toys, and remove packaging—your child’s safety is worth it.
Wishing all our families a safe, happy, and healthy holiday week! 💚
