🦃🍎 Healthy Thanksgiving Tip! 🍎🦃
Thanksgiving is full of family, fun, and lots of delicious food — and it’s the perfect time to help our little ones build healthy habits!

Here’s a simple Thanksgiving tip for families:

✨ Encourage kids to try a “colorful plate”!
Challenge them to add different colors from Thanksgiving sides — like orange sweet potatoes, green beans, red cranberries, and yellow corn. A colorful plate makes mealtime fun and helps them get a variety of nutrients! 🌈🍽️

Bonus ideas:
🥤 Keep water nearby to stay hydrated
🚶‍♀️ Take a family walk after the feast
🥕 Offer healthy snack options before the big meal
😴 Keep bedtime routines as close as possible

From our pediatric family to yours, wishing you a healthy, happy, and heart-filled Thanksgiving! 🧡🍂🦃

• Cover coughs and sneezes to prevent spreading germs

A little prevention goes a long way toward a healthy fall and winter. Call our office to schedule your child’s flu shot today! 💉

🤧 Cold, RSV, or Something More? 💨

Cold and flu season is here — and that means coughs, sniffles, and lots of tissues! But how can you tell if it’s just a cold or something more serious like RSV?

👃 Common Cold:
• Mild cough or stuffy nose
• Little to no fever
• Usually feels better within a week

💨 RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus):
• Wheezing, rapid breathing, or chest retractions
• Trouble feeding or sleeping
• Fever and persistent cough
• More serious in babies under 2 years old

🖐 What Parents Can Do:
✔️ Wash hands often
✔️ Clean toys and surfaces regularly
✔️ Keep little ones home when they’re sick
✔️ Watch for labored breathing, dehydration, or bluish lips — call your pediatrician if you see these signs

A little awareness goes a long way toward keeping your family healthy this season! 💙
