A Water Safety Message from Township Neighborhood Watch
With so many families at home and searching for ways to keep their children busy, many families are turning toward water-related activities. However, over the past few weeks, there has also been an increase in drownings. Several children in the greater Houston area have lost their lives while many others have been treated at local hospitals.
The biggest threat to young children is unsupervised access to water. It only takes a few seconds for a tragedy to happen while you are focusing on a work call or other distraction. Constant supervision is key!
Some safety tips to incorporate:
- Create barriers between your child and the water.
- Designate a water watcher to monitor young children.
- Remove balls and toys from the pool to eliminate temptation to a child.
- Drain inflatable pools after each use and store them upside down.
- Do not rely on water wings. Non-swimmers should wear an approved flotation device.
