Supervise kids activity for healthy children

There are many easy ways that early childhood services can keep children safe during indoor and outdoor physical activity:

Ensure there is plenty of room for activities.

It is important to make sure your children are engaged in tasks and activities that match their skills and abilities.

Encourage parents to dress their children in appropriate clothing and footwear that allows mobility.

Maintain and regularly check all equipment and resources to ensure that they are not a hazard to young children.

Ensure that all fixed playground equipment meets the current Australian Standards Guidelines and is appropriate for the ages, interests and abilities of the children attending the service. In addition, it is important to consider the layout of the service and take precautions to avoid injuries to children from things such as trip hazards, protruding objects and inappropriate surfacing beneath equipment.

Use the Cancer Council's SunSmart guidelines when children are playing outdoors.

Encourage children to drink plenty of water when they are being active or playing outdoors.
