   Extractions: Begin by establishing daily routines before school starts. According to Harvard child psychologist Dr. Larry Kutner, a.k.a. "Dr. Dad," this is especially important for young children since they have more difficulty with transitions. One way to do this is to practice your morning schedule the week before school actually starts. Find out how long it takes to get up, get dressed, eat breakfast and head out the door. This will help alleviate any last-minute morning hassles. Discuss how your children might deal with bullies and other situations that concern them. If your children are prepared to deal with difficult circumstances, there will be fewer problems and worry when they arise. For strategies on discussing these issues with your younger children, Dr. Kutner recommends

    Extractions: Stuber founded the Escape School in 1997. Escape School is an all-inclusive forum on child safety and he has trained over 80 other individuals to serve as Escape School instructors throughout the US and Canada. The forum deals with everything from abduction to water safety. In all situations, he promotes the reawakening of common sense. Research Route to School: Parents and kids together need to map out what route to take to school, and any alternate routes. In addition to feeling comfortable with the busy streets, etc, it's very important that parents know who lives along the child's path. Megan's Law requires that any person jailed for a sexual offense and then released be "registered" in the neighborhood where they live. This is public record and parents should utilize it by visiting the police station and researching the route to school.

    Extractions: Back to School Safety Children are heading back to school. The early morning roads are once again crowded with pedestrians, bikes, and cars in the rush to work and school. Drivers must always be watchful, and not only of other vehicles. In 1997, more than one third of the pedestrians injured by motor vehicles - approximately 77,000 - were children under the age of 15. Children frequently dart unexpectedly into traffic, often from between parked cars. If you're driving in and around school zones and other areas where children play, expect the unexpected. Bicycling in traffic or on busy roads can be dangerous. Just as if they were driving a car, children on bicycles must observe the rules of the road - yet they may not be familiar with them. The U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) suggests the following safe bicycling practices for riding in the U.S.: Always wear a helmet. Other safety gear, such as elbow pads, is recommended, especially for beginners.

    Extractions: By Bruce H. Axelrod, M.D. As millions of children head back to school, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is helping parents, teachers, and caregivers look for hidden hazards to help prevent injuries and deaths to children. The Commission's "Back to School Safety Checklist" offers tips on making schools, child care facilities and playgrounds safer. Playgrounds Check the surfaces around playground equipment. There should be a 12-inch depth of wood chips, mulch, sand or pea gravel, or there should be mats made of safety-tested rubber or fiber material to prevent head injury when a child falls. Each year, more than 200,000 children are treated in U.S. hospital emergency rooms for playground-associated injuries. Most of these injuries occur when a child falls from the equipment. Drawstrings on Jackets and Sweatshirts Remove drawstrings on hoods or around the neck. Cut drawstrings at the waist or bottom of jackets and sweatshirts to 3 inches. Since 1985, 22 children have died when drawstrings caught on school buses, playground equipment and other products. Loops on Window Blind Cords If the windows in your home, childcare facilities or schools have blinds, cut the loop on two-corded horizontal blinds, and attach separate tassels to prevent entanglement and strangulation in window blind cords. Vertical blinds, continuous loop systems and drapery cords use looped cords to function. Do not cut these loops. Instead, install a permanent tie-down device. To obtain free tassels and tie down devices call (800) 506-4636. About one child a month dies from strangulation with window covering cords.

    Extractions: Going back to school can be stressful for many children, especially if your child is entering school for the first time. There are a lot of expectations for children these days - school dress codes, supply lists, homework and behaving in class are only a few of the responsibilities your child will encounter. But our children are not the only ones who have school responsibilities. Parents are getting more involved in their child's education and as a result, they have their own set of expectations and responsibilities. The job of parenting never gets any easier...parents have the added stress of making sure their children stay safe while in school. This month we've provided some helpful articles to help you and your family prepare for the school year. Get involved in your child's school life! Ask questions, but most importantly, listen to your children. Together we can work to make our children's school years as safe as it can be :-)!

    Extractions: Now is the time that most schools reopen and children return for another year of school. Taking a few moments to remind children on how to keep themselves safe is the first lesson for the school year! If you’re taking a bus to school, be careful when boarding and exiting the bus. Don’t run up or down the steps and stay in a single-file line. Once you’ve exited the bus, walk to a crosswalk and look both ways for traffic before you cross the street. If you’re walking to school, walk with other children – there is safety in numbers. Don’t get near anyone in a car. If someone in a car stops to ask for directions, stand as far away from the car as possible and call out the answer in a loud voice. Playground injuries are the most common of school-related injuries. Be careful of other children playing on swings, slides, and bars. Don’t get in their way. Make sure there is a supervisor watching over everyone in the playground areas.

    Extractions: Main Autumn News As children are now back in school, it is important to help them get to and from school safely. Be sure to observe the speed limits in school zones and supervise your children on their way to and from school. Before you leave your child at home alone after school, you should make sure that he feels safe and comfortable and can handle the responsibility. Most children are not ready to be left alone until they are at least eleven or twelve years old, but it will depend on your child's maturity level. You may want to gradually let him stay home alone for very short times to make sure he is ready. Some things to review before you leave your child home alone include: Make sure that he is comfortable being home alone.
