Healthy Backs, Happy Kids
Help your child stay active and happy with these tips for a healthy back:
Infants & Toddlers
Limit your child’s time in a car seat or swing to avoid pain and discomfort. 2 hours in a 24 hour period.
Young Children
Make sure your child’s backpack does not weigh more than 10-15% of their total body weight.
Tweens
Avoid tech neck by keeping mobile devices at eye level. Looking down puts extra strain and pressure on the neck of up to 50-60lbs.
