Just when you thought China had cleaned up its manufacturing act a new threat emerges. A new report out this week documents that some Chinese manufacturers have been using Cadmium at very high levels in children’s jewelry. Cadmium which can cause cancer is even more harmful than the well-known damaging affects of lead in products. Make sure that any jewelry you have or will be getting is free of Cadmium.

Thank you for placing emphasis on child proofing the home. But, sometimes despite our best precautions accidents can happen and children can get into trouble. They can choke on something, get caught in cords, suffocate etc. And it’s for times like this that parents need to be prepared. All parents should take a CPR class and know what to do in an emergency situation. There are only minutes to spare. In an emergency parents need to stay very calm and act. You will act if you know what to do. You will know what to do if you take an infant and child CPR class. It is not enough to just take the class. Afterwards you need to practice and go over what you would do in every imaginable emergency situation. Knowledge is power.
