It’s been a week. Here’s your chance for some child-free time this Friday night without having to find a babysitter.
Just sign the little ones up for a fun filled night of games, gymnastics, and pizza. You’ll be able to enjoy date night worry-free and child-free while the kids have a blast with Summit Gymnastics’ amazing coaches thanks to Parent’s Night Out, Fri. Aug. 9 2024, 6-10PM, for kids ages 4-12.
Annual wellness exams are critical in maintaining the health and happiness of your child, and knocking these out at the beginning of the summer versus at the end avoids many potential problems.
“Our offices become so hectic at the end of the summer when school is about to begin again. Because of this we always encourage parents to bring their kids in at the beginning of the summer to avoid the back-to-school rush,” SouthCoast Health pediatrician Dr. David Mozer said. “This also ensures the child and parent have more quality time with their pediatrician and gives parents peace of mind through summer months usually filled with lots of travel.”
One tip: identify harmful products with “Mr. Yuk” stickers, (see above) created in 1971 by the Pittsburgh Poison Center at Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh.
