Welcome...Happy spring! This time of a year is great one to get children outside, do some spring cleaning, make some menu changes, and add physical activities to the day. In this issue of Healthy Childcare®, author Marna Holland outlines in Nutrition Action the complications of food allergies and anaphylaxis. This is an important article that you should retain in your resource library. Marna’s article in our Sickness & Health section on excluding ill children from care is also one you will not want to miss and includes helpful information to share with parents. In the Medicine Chest in this issue, Marna’s article on emotional abuse provides definitions of emotional abuse and the obligations of childcare programs if children in your may experience this abuse. Our Safety First article by Jill Norris looks at developing a lock down plan for your childcare program. In Heath & You for this issue, Becky Bennett and Connie Jo Smith continue with more information from last month’s article on taking care of yourself. Our My Healthy Child 2013 Growth Calendars are now on sale! These combination growth and weight charts and calendars plus safety tips are good throughout the year so get them while we still have them in stock.
