Dad Tip of The Day: Be Prepared
Dad Tip of the Day: Keeping your kids safe is one of the most important things a dad can do – be prepared by knowing CRP, the Heimlich, and having first aid kit around.
As parents, one of our greatest fears is our kids getting hurt badly. While life is such that you cannot prevent all accidents and injuries, helping your kids stay safe in general and being prepared is something we can always continue to work on.
Being prepared can mean a lot of things – having first aid kits close by, knowing CPR, knowing the Heimlich maneuver, knowing self defense, teaching them water safety, etc. The more you know and are prepared, the better equipped you will be in the event of an emergency.
The other day, I realized my knowledge of the Heimlich maneuver was not as good as it should be, so I refreshed by watching a youtube video. A few minutes invested, but something that could save my kid’s (or anyone around me’s) lives if it came down to it. I am now more confident in it and know it better from a technical standpoint.
So do what you can to protect your love ones, and continually work to be prepared for whatever comes your way.
Thanks for stopping by,

It pays to be always prepare since anything could happen without warning. A few minutes of preparations is always better than a lifetime of regrets.
