If your kids spend a few hours at home alone after school, here is a tip on how to keep them safe until you come home. Create and practice an emergency response plan with your children so they know what to do in emergencies. Create a list of instructions and make sure it's in plain sight for them to find at all times. Review this plan with them regularly and be sure to include other trusted adults your children can contact if they cannot reach you. - #safetyathome #emergencyplan #kidsafety #afterschool #afterschoolsafety #homealonetips #equipyourkids

It's common knowledge that stretching is good for your body but did you know that these benefits extend to your hands and wrists? Stretching your hands and wrists can prevent injury, ease pain and improve mobility. Here's a simple stretch you can try now. Hold up five fingers with your palm facing away from your body. With the other hand, gently hold one finger at a time and pull it towards you until you feel a little resistance and hold that position for 10 seconds. This should feel like a light stretch. It should not be painful! - #handstretch #stretchitout #staymobile #flexibilewrists #mobility #tipsfromdrE #eulesstx
