Exploring the Early Years :: Fourth Annual Conference :: February 10, 2007 :: Modesto Junior College
- Children and Asthma
Asthma is the most common chronic lung disease in childhood and it's on the rise. It can negatively affect a child's quality of life in many ways. Except for their homes, children spend more time in childcare or school than they do anywhere else. Child care providers and teachers attending the conference will learn about asthma symptoms and triggers as well as the latest treatments to help children manage their asthma so they can lead normal and active lives.
- Scars on the Playground: They're Not Always on the Outside
With more and more children entering early care and education settings, the challenge of keeping them safe from injury inside and outside is bigger than ever. How can you keep kids safe and prevent accidents from occurring? The answer may surprise you. It's all about relationship building and communication. Child injury prevention is the focus of the afternoon keynote address.
