Help keep your child's reading skills sharp this summer! In an average summer, kids can lose about 20% of the progress they've made in reading. Here are some tips from the AAP on how you can support your child's reading over the summer & keep it fun:

πŸ“š Get kids their own public library card to help make visiting and exploring the library more fun
πŸ“š Pair books with summer travel plans. Find stories that feature trip destinations or add a kid-friendly travel guide or scavenger hunt.
πŸ“š Create a fun reading nook at home
πŸ“š Connect reading to summer adventures. Pair reading with trips to the zoo, planetarium, or outdoor settings like camping and lakes.
πŸ“š Read out loud to each other
πŸ“š Encourage kids to trade books with friends

See link in bio for more summer reading ideas, including how to incorporate audiobooks!

Happy ! Pride is important for kids, families, and allies to come together to unite, empower, and celebrate our LGBTQ+ community! This year's Utah Pride Festival & Parade is happening June 6-7, and the theme is Pride Elevated.

You don't have to be LGBTQ+ to participate in Pride Month, but no matter where, when, or how you celebrate, it is important to help LGBTQ+ youth feel safe, affirmed, connected, and welcome, especially in the face of adversity. Everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive safely, fully, and with pride πŸ©·β€οΈπŸ§‘πŸ’›πŸ’šπŸ’™πŸ’œπŸ€ŽπŸ–€

To Go. To Meet. To Have. To Be. To Give. There are so many different types of wishes! They can help kids feel better and give them the hope and strength they need to fight and even overcome.

Make-A-Wish Utah serves children facing critical illnesses, and a child does not need to be terminally ill to qualify for a wish. While many wish children are referred by their medical team, families can also make a referral directly. It only takes one referral to bring hope and joy to a child’s journey.

Wasatch Pediatrics has partnered with to support wishes for Utah kids because we believe in the power of a wish and giving back.

To refer a child or learn more about the impact of a wish, visit utah.wish.org.

Summer is here, which is a good reminder to think about swim safety! Teaching your child how to swim helps build confidence in the water and can significantly reduce the risk of drowning. But how do you know when to start & what to look for in a swim program? Head to our link in bio for swim lesson FAQs!

πŸ’§ According to the AAP recommendations, many children can start swim lessons as early as age 1, depending on their developmental readiness and comfort level in the water.

πŸ’§ By age 4, most children are ready for swim lessons if they haven't started yet. If you have questions about whether your child is ready for swim lessons, talk with your pediatrician.

βš οΈβ—οΈ Remember, swim lessons don’t replace supervision - even with lessons, CLOSE supervision is always essential!
