Active Kids, Healthy Futures! 🌟
At Beaches Pediatrics, we believe movement is key to a child's overall health and happiness! Regular physical activity helps build strong muscles and bones, boosts mood, and supports brain development.
🏃‍♂️ How Much Activity Do Kids Need?
Children should engage in at least 60 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity every day. Whether it's jumping, dancing, biking, or playing sports, every movement counts!
🎾 Fun Ways to Stay Active
✔️ Outdoor Adventures – Running, climbing, and biking strengthen growing bodies.
✔️ Sports & Games – Soccer, basketball, and swimming build endurance and teamwork.
✔️ Creative Play – Dancing, hula hooping, and obstacle courses keep things exciting!
✔️ Family Fitness – Walks on the beach, yoga, or playing catch encourage movement together.
📱 Tips to Reduce Screen Time & Boost Activity
✨ Set playtime before screen time.
✨ Find a local park or sports club.
✨ Make exercise a family event!
✨ Encourage active hobbies like gymnastics or martial arts.
Physical activity isn't just about fitness—it's about confidence, coordination, and setting lifelong healthy habits! Need personalized advice for your child's activity level? We’re here to help.

Stay Safe: Beach & Pool Tips for Kids This Summer!
Summer means fun in the sun, but it’s important to ensure safety while enjoying the beach or pool. Keep these tips in mind for a splash-tastic and safe summer:
🌊 Beach Safety
- Know Your Waves: Teach kids to recognize strong currents and avoid rough waters. Always swim where lifeguards are present.
- Stay Sun-Safe: Apply sunscreen generously and frequently. Hats, sunglasses, and rash guards are great allies against the sun.
- Hydration is Key: Keep plenty of water handy to prevent dehydration. Heat sneaks up faster than you think!
- Buddy System: Ensure kids stay within your line of sight and have a swimming buddy—safety in numbers.

🏖️ Pool Safety
- Supervision First: Stay alert and keep an eye on young swimmers at all times.
- Teach Them Early: Swimming lessons build confidence and safety skills for kids of all ages.
- Secure Pool Areas: If you’re home, install fences or covers to prevent unsupervised access.
- Pool Rules Matter: Go over the basics—no running, no diving in shallow areas, and no rough play near water.

Remember, summer fun is all about balance—embracing the season while keeping safety top priority! Spread the word and let’s make this a safe and sunny season for everyone. 🌞🏊‍♀️🌴

☀️ Summer & Ear Infections: What Parents Need to Know! 🌊
Summer fun means swimming, outdoor adventures, and plenty of sunshine—but it also brings a rise in ear infections for kids. At Beaches Pediatrics, we want to help families enjoy a healthy and happy summer!
👂 Why Do Ear Infections Increase in Summer?
🏊 Swimming & Water Exposure – Moisture in the ear can lead to bacterial growth, causing swimmer’s ear (outer ear infection).
🌡️ Seasonal Allergies & Sinus Congestion – Increased allergens can block the Eustachian tubes, leading to middle ear infections.
🚀 More Outdoor Play – Bumps, scrapes, and germs spread easily with active summer fun!
🩺 Signs of Ear Infections in Kids
🔹 Ear pain or tugging at the ear
🔹 Trouble hearing or responding
🔹 Drainage from the ear (for swimmer’s ear)
🔹 Fever or fussiness
💦 Preventing Summer Ear Infections
✔️ Dry ears after swimming – Tilt the head to drain water or use a soft towel.
✔️ Avoid inserting cotton swabs – This can push bacteria further in.
✔️ Manage allergies – Keep symptoms in check with pediatric-approved treatments.
✔️ Watch for symptoms early – Quick care prevents bigger issues!
