Kids love playing in the water whether it be a sprinkler, water table or pool. At home and in child care programs, water play can also be great for building social and motor skills as well as just plain old fun. It’s important though that parents and caregivers create a safe environment for all water activities.

There are many dangers parents worry about when it comes to their children. However, you can help mitigate those risks when it comes to their safety in and around vehicles. You should always teach children not play in or around cars, and never leave a child in a car alone for any length of time.
