Reading aloud with children can create strong bonds with loved ones and helps your child develop and learn. A child with hearing loss might not be able to hear or understand some of the words in a story, or tell you the names of things on the page. But your child will enjoy cuddling with you and sharing a colorful and interesting book. Over time, reading aloud can also strengthen speech and language skills by making reading fun. It’s a way to give your child a gift that will last a lifetime—a love of books.

If your child has hearing loss and you find reading together challenging, consider implementing these tips during your next reading session:

1. Turning pages, touching the pictures, and reading books with flaps will give your child proactive using their hands, which gets your child ready to learn sign language.

2. Read together at a time of day when reading can be fun and relaxing.

3. Learn and use simple sign language as you read.

4. Read the same story many times. This can help your child learn words that may have been missed before. Explain the story if you need to.

5. Make sure your child can see your face and the pictures. This will make it easier to follow the story, even if the child doesn’t catch all the words

Heavy backpacks go hand-in-hand with the return of the school year, and parents need to know how to help their children avoid the pain. While there are no studies showing that carrying a heavy backpack causes structural deformity to the back, kids with chronic back pain are predisposed to becoming adults with chronic back pain.

Here are some tips to help your child prevent back pain and injury from backpacks. Remember: Back pain among children and adolescents is very common, but if lightening the load and back exercises are not working, it may be time to see an orthopaedic specialist.

Holiday gatherings are a time to connect but can also increase your exposure to respiratory illnesses.

Even if you are vaccinated against COVID-19, Flu, or RSV, there are other respiratory illnesses, like the common cold, that you can still get.

For added layers of protection, follow CDC’s recommended respiratory illness prevention strategies, like:
- Practicing good hygiene by washing your hands.
- Improving air flow or ventilation in crowded spaces.
- If feeling sick, staying home, or wearing a mask if you must be around others.

Insulin resistance can be a major step toward type 2 diabetes, but the good news is that physical activity can help. Regular exercise improves your body’s ability to use insulin and manage blood sugar levels. Just 30 minutes a day can make a real difference in preventing or managing insulin resistance.

Staying active isn’t just about fitness—it’s a powerful tool to protect your health and reduce your diabetes risk. Let’s move toward a healthier future!
