Summer is approaching and soon you will be sending your kids off to overnight camp. To prevent pesky lice from putting an end to summer fun, take some preventative steps to prevent lice.
Check your child for head lice BEFORE going to camp.
Teach your kids the following tips to prevent head lice at camp:
• Avoid head-to-head contact
• Do not share clothing such as hats, helmets, hair clips, etc.
• Do not share brushes, combs or towels
• Only lie and sleep in their bed
• Girls should wear their hair up (braids, bun, ponytails). Avoid hanging hair.
Check your child for head lice the day they return from camp.
