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.
It is observed in most of the states in the USA.
It is observed by various fall prevention groups and medical staff members. The National Council on Aging sponsors the annual observance of National Fall Prevention Day every year. It also creates various programs on disease control and fall prevention to make sure that older adults are in good health.
The day was first observed in 2008, on the first day of fall. It was an initiative to raise awareness among people about how to prevent injuries related to falls.
The National Council on Aging started National Fall Prevention Day with the intention of preventing falls.
Falls have always been taken seriously by medical staff, caregivers, and professionals. Even today, they are life-threatening and cause more damage than many people will believe.
It is a day to remind you that some of your dear ones, older people and children, are dependent on you for their safety. It is up to you to make sure that they are far away from any danger, especially falls.
Firstly, you can spend some time with an elderly person, maybe someone in your family or someone you know. You can converse and let them know that there are people who truly love and care about them. You can participate in screening conducted every year by the National Council of Aging. Get educated on disease control and injury prevention, and involve yourself by raising awareness among friends and family members.
You can also opt to become an activist for the elderly. Survey your home and community and evaluate the environment; try to make it safer and more comfortable for the older people living around you.
It is a national day to raise awareness among people about the increasing cases of fall injuries.
