Tragically, every year, there are many serious and sometimes fatal injuries when people fall from great heights while flying kites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do not fly the kite near power lines. However, if a kite should get entangled in them, do not try to untangle it as there is a serious risk of electrocution. Just leave the kite there and let go of the string.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bear in mind that the string of the kite can cause cuts and friction burns on the children\u2019s hands, therefore you need to show them how to hold the string carefully. It would help to wear gloves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember to always have hats, sunscreen lotion and insect repellents with you when you go on these outings. You will most probably need them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>On Ash Monday people often organise excursions by car. For their safety children should always be seated in the rear seat and always wear a seat belt. The car dealerships and car accessory shops may suggest the correct seat for each child, depending on it\u2019s height and weight. And do not forget that in the car it is very important to set a good example for the young. Please always wear your own seat belt even for the smallest distances!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Often car accidents occur when the young children are bored and start irritating and annoying their parents\/drivers. In order to keep them amused allow them to have some safe toys (never a toy with small detachable pieces which they might swallow) to play with in the car. Also stop the car often in order to allow children to get out and move about, so that they are calmer while continuing the journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Grown ups should never hold a child in their lap even if they are wearing a seat belt, because, in case of an accident, the child will act as an airbag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, a child must always get out of the car using the door nearest the sidewalk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>These small details should be followed so that a fun family outing on Ash Monday does not end up in tears or a mad rush to the nearest Paediatric Hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The Charity \u201cPediatric Trauma Care\u201d is a non-profit organization whose sole purpose is to reduce Children\u2019s Accidents and their severity. As part of the \u201cEducation on Trauma Prevention\u201d Program, the Charity holds presentations in Kindergardens and Primary Schools in Attica, educating children, teachers and parents on how to prevent accidents from occurring. Brochures concerning safety tips for various categories of accidents are distributed throughout Greece. To date the presentations of Education on Trauma Prevention have been attended by more than 48,000 children and 3,000 teachers and parents.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>For more information about the Program you can contact the Charity on 210-6741 933 or at info@pedtrauma.gr.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ash Monday, also known as Monday of Lent, is the day we fly kites.
