Happy Halloween from First 5 Riverside County kids! Stay safe tonight and have fun!

[First 5 Riverside County @First5Riverside]

Families enjoyed a Halloween theme today at Jurupa Valley FRC's Raising a Reader where they read "Miss Spider’s Tea Party" By David Kirk. After story time, children made crafty spiders to take home. 🕷️🕸️

Today’s talking tip: Engage w/ children by discussing their interests.

Having a strong support network is important for children as well as their parents. Good reminder from the Parental Leave Playbook.

Pregnant women are more likely to get heat-related illness because:
-Your body works harder to keep both you and your baby cool.
-You are more likely to become dehydrated, which makes sweating less effective.

Make a heat plan to keep you both safe: https://t.co/4fMzcjy7WR
