Back to School!
 With one last burst of warm days and mild nights, summer prepares to make way for fall. It's time for kids to start a new school year and make new friends. While you're busy shopping for notebooks, backpacks, and shoes this back-to-school season, don't forget to prepare for the unwelcome visitors that sometimes come with the chilly winds and crowded rooms -- colds, flu, even (gasp!) head lice. Our special report pulls together some great articles to help you keep your family healthy as things get more hectic. If you're always eating on the go, we have ideas for quick and healthful breakfasts and snacks. Our handy up-to-date chart lets you check which shots your kids should get this year. Enjoy! Features:
| • | Childhood Immunization Schedule - This easy-to-read chart shows which shots your kids need and when, and includes short descriptions of the nasty bugs these vaccines protect against.
|
| • | Children's Health - Still have questions? We have helpful articles on shyness, sleep problems, first aid, and lots of other topics.
