Snack time should bring smiles, not emergencies.

Choking is a leading cause of injury in young children, especially under age 5. Most incidents happen quickly, but prevention makes a big difference.

Common choking hazards include:

🍇 Whole grapes and hot dogs
🍬 Hard candies
🪀 Small objects like coins or toy parts

Cutting food into small pieces, keeping small items out of reach, and supervising meals are simple ways to reduce the risk.
