Bite-Sized Safety: Preventing Choking Hazards
Thursday, January 16, 2025 (2:00 PM - 2:30 PM) (EST)
Description
Children under the age of 4 are at high risk of choking while eating, as they’re still learning to chew properly and often swallow food whole. With their small airways easily blocked, it's crucial to understand the risks posed by certain foods.
1. Identify common food-related choking hazards and understand the developmental reasons young children are at higher risk of choking.
2. Learn effective prevention strategies for minimizing choking risks in everyday situations, including proper food preparation and supervision.
