Spring is in full swing, which means that it’s the perfect time for you and your kids to get outside and enjoy the sunshine and warmer weather. Unfortunately, with an increase in outdoor play comes an increase in the risk of injury for kids.
Skinned knees, scratches, falls, and even more serious injuries like broken bones seem to go hand-in-hand with playing outside. But, if you and your child take the necessary safety precautions before heading to the park or playground, many injuries can be avoided.
