Happy National Child Health Day!

October 06, 2014
History
Child health, that should be a no-brainer.
But I guess, like so much in history, it’s been a development :
National Day Calendar says,
“President Calvin Coolidge was the first president to issue a Child Health Day Proclamation while the resolution was still pending in Congress”
Purpose
Time and Date adds,
“The day focuses on a range of child health issues such as prenatal care, adolescent health, the impact of daycare on a child’s development, preventing injuries, healthy eating and lifestyle choices, and immunization.”
Bottomline
Physical, emotional, and spiritual health
If we do it for all children, we do it for ourselves as adults.
And maybe it’s a little tenderness for our own inner child still inside (smiles).
