We know how natural it is to want to kiss the little ones you love.
But during cold, flu, and RSV season, those sweet kisses, especially on faces and hands, can pass along germs to growing immune systems.
The good news?
There are so many ways to show love while still protecting kids’ health:
🤍 Big hugs
🤍 Blown kisses
🤍 High-fives or fist bumps
🤍 Holding hands
🤍 Reading a book together
Small changes can mean fewer sick days and more time feeling good together.
