With more children at home, there may be a spike in magnet ingestions. We recently published a pathway on how to take care of these children with visual and case examples for primary care providers, ED clinicians and more. Ping jem-journal.com/article/S0736-…

*TWEETORIAL ALERT* In light of a recent @washingtonpost story on increasing magnet ingestion in children in the US, a brief tweetorial. This is applicable to all anyone who has, takes care of, or cares about kids. So, why all the fuss? washingtonpost.com/business/econo…

The high speeds and potential for severe injuries make e-devices (e-scooters, e-bicycles and e-skateboards) unsafe for young riders. Non-motorized scooters & bicycles are safer options for exercise and transportation. Read more: ow.ly/Pc7q50Ws3nv #InjuryPrevention

Data we've collected through @PHAC_GC 's CHIRPP program echo these findings locally - more kids are getting into more severe crashes while riding e-scooters. These are not toys and should not be purchased for kids or teens.

If you are installing backyard play equipment, keep in mind that grass & dirt can become hard over time. Consider using sand or wood chips to absorb some of the impact of falls. Here are playground safety rules that children should learn & understand: ow.ly/AWrS50JYb8N

Paediatric health care has long been limited by old ways of doing things. That’s about to change with our new strategy. We will no longer accept a world where children’s health is determined by averages and a one-size-fits-all approach. #SickKids2030👉2030.sickkids.ca
