Sledding on or into the roadway should be prohibited. Look for shallow slopes that are free of obstacles, such as trees and fences. Most skiing and skating injuries involve twists, sprains and strains. Prevent injuries by providing your child with competent instruction, proper equipment and appropriate supervision. Cutting down your own tree for the holiday may start a wonderful family tradition.
Young children can pick out the tree while an adult does the chopping.
Food Safety Bacteria are often present in raw foods. Fully cook meats and poultry, and thoroughly wash raw vegetables and fruits. Wash your hands frequently, and make sure your children do the same. Never put a spoon used to taste food back into food without washing it. Always keep raw foods and cooked foods separate, and use separate utensils when preparing them.
