Children come into closer contact with their environment than adults.
They crawl on the floor and the ground, put their fingers in their mouths and because of their curious nature touch and taste things without knowing if they are harmful.
They may also be more sensitive to some harmful substances because of their stage of development.
As a parent or caregiver you have an important role to play in providing a healthy environment for your child(ren).
This booklet has information on what you can do and gives Internet links and telephone numbers for more information.
Your local Public Health Department may have information on providing healthy environments for children.
