Children face a wide variety of health concerns during this time of year as the summer starts to fade and shifts into the fall.

Sunburn and other heat-related hazards are still present, as are the threats of animal and insect bites, swimming in backyard pools and other bodies of water, and the bumps, bruises and breaks that may happen when children make their way to the playground.

Meanwhile, with the approach of fall and cooler weather, children tend to spend more time inside the home – a place that can present a whole new set of worries and challenges for keeping kids safe.
