Lyme Disease Prevention for Kids, Song & Fun Activities!

April 20, 2015 in Children's Health Education

Tick color sheets and graphic sample

Well it is true, the reports are coming in that Lyme and other Tick borne diseases will be higher than ever. We need to protect and teach our children lyme disease prevention. The tick cycle, the small acorn crop and the low count of mice may be some reasons for the increase of Lyme disease this year. Less mice means the ticks will be looking for other ways to feast and that means our children and us.

      Great resources about a super important topic. I personally had a lengthy battle with Lyme in childhood. That was before much was known about it in our area. The coloring pages are great to help kids (and parents) identify these little buggies.

      Thanks for sharing Jessie, I really hate ticks too. It really is a health risk we have to be diligent about. Preventing the tick attachment is the game changer. Thanks again for stopping by.
