Personal Childbirth Trainer & PCT Workshops
"From Pregnancy to Labor and Delivery & Beyond..."

July 2008 |
Hello Everyone! Welcome to the JULY 2008 e-newsletter!
Ah...talk about births! This is the biggest and best birth of all!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA!
We are now 232 years old!...and I thought turning 41 last week was old...now I don't feel so old...hehe! For most Americans, the Fourth of July is a time for celebration, food, fun and fireworks. The CPSC (see below) reported that in 2007, nearly 10,000 Americans were treated in Emergency rooms for firework-related injuries (mostly burns). Please be careful! Adults, always supervise firework fun. Never allow young children to play or ignite fireworks. Many injuries occur from sparklers to children under five. Sparklers can burn at temperatures of about 2,000+ degrees. Keep a bucket of water or a garden hose handy in case of fire or other mishap. PLEASE KEEP AN EYE on the TODDLERS & CHILDREN! ...and Happy 4th of July to all! ~Diane

Let's talk about recalls...The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is charged with protecting
the public from unreasonable risks of serious injury or death from more
than 15,000 types of consumer products under the agency's jurisdiction.
The CPSC is committed
to protecting consumers and families from products that pose a fire,
electrical, chemical, or mechanical hazard or can injure children. The
CPSC's work to ensure the safety of consumer products - such as toys,
cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters, and household chemicals -
contributed significantly to the 30 percent decline in the rate of
deaths and injuries associated with consumer products over the past 30
years. Sign up for their FREE EMAIL LIST OF RECALLS! www.cpsc.gov/cpsclist.aspx

Neat Items!
I have come across a couple of items I want to share with you!
Baby Abuelita Family of Dolls---  I like this doll! These soft and cuddley singing plush dolls entertain and educate the entire family in Spanish! Teaches music and creativity, promotes language skills, and develop social skills. They can be found in some Target or Toys "R" Us stores or go to www.BabyAbuelita.com
 Firefly Mobile: The Mobile Phone for Kids! This phone is great! Designed especially for children. One of my friends has this phone for her son who has special needs. With just 5 keys, this phone lets children easily dial those that matter most. They don't have to be able to memorize numbers. Great for the young ones. All they have to do is press the "mommy" or "daddy" button and they can call you if they need you! Love it! For more information go to www.FireFlyMobile.com
