At Kidadl we pride ourselves on offering families original ideas to make the most of time spent together at home or out and about, wherever you are in the world. We strive to recommend the very best things that are suggested by our community and are things we would do ourselves - our aim is to be the trusted friend to parents.
We try our very best, but cannot guarantee perfection. We will always aim to give you accurate information at the date of publication - however, information does change, so it’s important you do your own research, double-check and make the decision that is right for your family.
Kidadl provides inspiration to entertain and educate your children. We recognise that not all activities and ideas are appropriate and suitable for all children and families or in all circumstances. Our recommended activities are based on age but these are a guide. We recommend that these ideas are used as inspiration, that ideas are undertaken with appropriate adult supervision, and that each adult uses their own discretion and knowledge of their children to consider the safety and suitability.
Kidadl cannot accept liability for the execution of these ideas, and parental supervision is advised at all times, as safety is paramount. Anyone using the information provided by Kidadl does so at their own risk and we can not accept liability if things go wrong.
This event is observed worldwide to educate and make people aware of the disease that can cause several problems in the affected individual.
This event is observed by people around the world for the recognition of this fatal disease through an organization called Anosmia Awareness.
This day first started in the year 2012 to spread awareness about the loss of smell and in what ways it can be fatal to people. This disease affects about 200,000 people in the U.S. alone.
in the year 2012, Daniel Shein started Anosmia Awareness Day. He was diagnosed with the condition when he was in the fifth grade. He started his research on anosmia in the year 2011, after which he started an organization called Anosmia Awareness, where he did his research. The organization also helped create awareness amongst people.
Anosmia is said to affect over 200,000 people in the US. There is no cure or treatment for this disease. Many people have started living with it and accepting that they have it and there is no cure for it. With the help of the organization set up by Daniel Shein, research for anosmia has started. They are also helping other countries and hospitals to help find a solution to this problem.
Creating awareness is the most important way of sharing knowledge that can be upheld as a tradition on this day. If we do some research and educate people in our communities and on social media, it has the potential to reach a lot of people all around the world. It is the most important step to make people believe that one day a cure may be found and that they may be able to conquer their loss of sense of smell.
The first thing that we can do is research what anosmia is, what symptoms are related to this olfactory dysfunction, and what actions should be taken if someone recognizes a problem with their sense of smell or is experiencing different aromas than usual. When we have this knowledge, we can create awareness amongst our family and friends or even local communities. Not only that, we can use the means of podcasts and social media, to get the knowledge spread to people worldwide. Getting a doctor to discuss anosmia through podcats is also a great way to reach out to people. Another way to observe this day could be to support the organizations that are working towards understanding anosmia better.
Anosmia can be temporary and permanent also. Temporary anosmia can be recovered from. Like the symptoms diagnosed during Covid-19, patients usually recover within a year of initial symptoms.
It can be caused by infection and age is also a big factor in anosmia. Factors such as ethnicity also play an important role.
Anosmia doesn’t have a cure or a course of treatment, which means it cannot be cured. Losing a sense has a big impact on the lives of those diagnosed.
Daniel Shien started Anosmia Awareness day.
It is observed annually on February 27.
It is significant in providing support to people with anosmia and educating those who have no knowledge about the condition.
People follow this day by researching about it and letting people know more about this disease through different means of communication.
People follow this day so that they can be helpful in not only creating awareness but also saving a life by helping the person in need get the right support.
