🎃 Tip Tuesday: Trick-or-Treat Safety Edition! 🍬
Halloween is almost here, and while the candy and costumes bring all the fun, a few simple steps can help keep your little ghosts and goblins safe! 👻

🕒 Know Your Trick-or-Treat Time: Local hours vary across Central Ohio — check your city’s website before heading out!

👫 Stay Together: Kids under 12 should always trick-or-treat with an adult or group. The buddy system = the best system!

✨ Be Bright, Be Seen: Add glow sticks, reflective tape, or a flashlight to your child’s costume so they’re visible after dark.

🚗 Drive Safe & Stay Alert: If you’re out and about, slow down in neighborhoods and watch closely for trick-or-treaters crossing the street.

🍭 Sort & Save: Let your kids enjoy a few favorite candies after you’ve checked them, then save the rest for later to avoid sugar overload.

💖 Be Kind to Little Goblins: Encourage older kids to share the sidewalks, be patient, and make room for younger trick-or-treaters.

🎃 From all of us at Olentangy Pediatrics — have a fun, safe, and spooktacular Halloween! 🧡👻

🦠✨ RSV season is here — let’s keep those sniffles at bay!

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) can be especially tough on little ones, but a few simple steps can make a big difference:

🧼 Wash hands often — soap, water, and 20 seconds go a long way.

😷 Keep germs away — steer clear of sick contacts and wipe down shared toys.

💕 Protect your smallest — infants and preemies are most at risk. Ask your pediatrician about RSV antibody protection (like Beyfortus or nirsevimab) this season.

Keeping your family healthy starts with prevention. 💙

Tip Tuesday: What Parents Should Know About Acetaminophen Use in Children
💡 If your child is 12 weeks or older, acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol) can be a safe option to relieve fever or mild pain—when used correctly. Here’s what you need to know:

🩹 You may give it every 4 to 6 hours as needed, but do not exceed more than 4 doses in 24 hours.

🩹 Always follow the label instructions or your pediatrician’s guidance to ensure the proper dose based on your child’s weight and age.

🩹 If you’re ever unsure about dosing—or whether to use it at all—ask your pediatrician before giving it.

🩹 Decades of studies support acetaminophen’s safety when used as directed. There is no strong evidence of a causal link between acetaminophen and autism when used properly in children.

🩺 A great resource our pediatricians recommend:
https://www.aap.org/en/news-room/fact-checked/acetaminophen-is-safe-for-children-when-taken-as-directed-no-link-to-autism/

Stay informed, stick to the guidelines, and when in doubt—consult your doctor. Don't have a pediatrician or looking to make a switch? We’re here for you and your child’s health every step of the way. ➡️

🚨 Parents in the know: Not all snacks are safe for little ones! 🚨
Some foods—like grapes, hot dogs, popcorn, and even cheese cubes—are common choking hazards for young children. 🧒🍇🌭
✅ To keep mealtime safe:
Cut foods into small, manageable pieces
Avoid hard or sticky treats
Always supervise during eating
A few small changes can make a BIG difference in keeping your child safe! 💙
