🎃👻 Halloween Safety Tips for Kids! 👻🎃

Trick-or-treating is all about fun, costumes, and candy — but safety comes first! Here are a few pediatrician-approved tips to help keep your little ghosts and superheroes safe this Halloween while trick-or-treating and after:

🕯️ Be visible: Add reflective tape or glow sticks to costumes and bags.
🚦 Cross safely: Use sidewalks and crosswalks, and make eye contact with drivers before crossing, do not assume cars will stop.
🍬 Check treats: Only eat candy that’s sealed and from trusted homes.
🔥 Costume safety: Avoid long, loose fabrics near candles or jack-o’-lanterns; carrying long and sharp, sticks, swords or canes can be dangerous if they stumble or trip.
👀 Supervise: Little ones should always have an adult or responsible older child nearby.
😝Choking hazards for kiddos under 4 years old: hard candies, candy corn, caramel apples, taffy, popcorn, gum, small candies, gummy candies, pumpkin seeds, whole nuts.

Have a spook-tacular and safe Halloween from all of us at Topeka Pediatrics! 🧡

Viral season is here! We have been seeing some Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFMD) in the community. Here is some information on what Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease is!

🌡️Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease: What Parents Should Know

Hand, Foot, and Mouth Disease (HFMD) is a common viral illness that mainly affects young children under the age of 5—especially in daycare or school settings. Older children and adults can get it as well.

💧 What to do if your child gets HFMD:
There is no medicine to treat or cure HFMD.
Keep your child home until the fever is gone and blisters have healed.
Encourage fluids to prevent dehydration – dehydration is our biggest concern.
Use acetaminophen or ibuprofen for comfort (if age-appropriate).
Wash hands often — this virus spreads easily!

Symptoms typically are worst in the first few days but are usually gone within 7-10 days.

🚼 When to call your pediatrician:
If your child isn’t drinking enough, seems very tired, or if symptoms worsen.

A little rest and lots of hydration go a long way toward recovery 💕

Cold season is coming, lets keep these kiddos healthy!

🧼✨ Healthy Hands, Healthy Kids! ✨🧼

Handwashing is one of the easiest (and most powerful!) ways to keep your child healthy. Germs spread quickly—especially in schools, playgrounds, and at home.

🖐️💦 How to Wash Hands the Right Way 💦🖐️

1️⃣ Wet hands with clean, running water.
2️⃣ Lather with soap—don’t forget the backs of hands, between fingers, and under nails.
3️⃣ Scrub for at least 20 seconds (sing “Happy Birthday” twice 🎶).
4️⃣ Rinse well under clean, running water.
5️⃣ Dry with a clean towel or air dry.

✨ Clean hands = fewer germs, fewer sick days, and healthier kids!

🚰 Handwashing = fewer sick days + healthier kids!
