No parent wants to see their little one sick, but it’s a germy world we live in. Because children’s immune systems are less mature than ours, they are more susceptible to germs and often catch more colds.
In this newsletter, we give you some guidance on healthy habits to protect the whole family from germs inside and outside of the home. In addition to these prevention tips, make sure your kiddos are getting enough sleep and exercise and eating a well-balanced diet to keep their immune system strong.
