(HealthDayNews) -- As a new school year gets underway, the American Academy of Pediatrics offers this checklist for your child's first few days back:
- Have you filled out all the health forms or emergency contact forms that have been sent home?
- Is your child registered? What time does school start?
- How is your child getting to school? Have you reviewed safety precautions with her regarding traffic and strangers?
- Can your child buy lunch at school, and how much will it cost?
- Are there any restrictions on what clothes your child may wear?
- If your child has to take medication at school, have you made arrangements for this?
