🌞Steps to take to stay cool this summer🌞

☀ Stay hydrated! Drink lots of water often
☀ On very hot days stay inside and work on crafts, play board games, or read a good book
☀ Dress in light-colored clothes to prevent excessive heat absorption
☀Sun protection matters!
☀ Cool off with water! Whether you're swimming, playing in a sprinkler, or taking a cool bath, if your kiddo is feeling hot, use water to cool them down

If only this were true, these kids would be the cleanest in the summertime ☀️

Keep swimmers healthy!

Encourage everyone who uses the pool to follow these recommendations:
🍊Stay out of the pool if you have diarrhea.
🍊Shower for at least 1 minute before you get into the water to remove dirt or anything else on your body.
🍊Chlorine mixed with dirt, sweat, p*e, and p**p creates chemicals that make swimmers' eyes red and sting.
🍊When chlorine mixes with dirt, sweat, p*e, and p**p, it also means there is less chlorine available to kill germs.
🍊Don't swallow the water.
🍊Don't p*e or p**p in the water.
🍊Take kids on bathroom breaks and check diapers every hour.
🍊Change diapers away from the poolside to keep germs from getting in the water.
🍊Dry ears thoroughly with a towel after swimming to prevent swimmer's ear.

Even though summer’s here, let’s make sure your kid’s health and well-being aren’t an afterthought!

🌟 As a pediatrician (and mom), I know how hectic this season gets. Beyond shopping for supplies, think of this as a chance to build the habits and health that will carry your kid through the entire year.

🎯 Think about:

📍 Sneaking in some active play to boost focus
📍 Re-establishing bedtime routines for smoother mornings
📍 Checking in on their feelings about heading back

October 29th is . Psoriasis is quite common in children. According to the National Psoriasis Foundation (NPF), each year an estimated 20,000 children under age 10 years are diagnosed in the United States.

Most people experience their first psoriasis episode between ages 15 and 35 years old, but it can develop in children much younger and in adults much older. According to the NPF, around one-third of adults with psoriasis say their symptoms began when they were under 20 years old.

For some children, psoriasis symptoms may become less severe and less frequent as they grow older. Others may continue to deal with the condition throughout their lives.
