Summer and water go hand in hand. Whether your family spends time at the neighborhood pool, splash pad, lake, water park, or backyard kiddie pool, water can provide hours of fun, exercise, and family memories. But it also comes with risks that every parent and caregiver should understand.

Summer often means more time in the car. Families are driving to swimming lessons, camps, sports practices, parks, libraries, vacations, and grandparents' houses. With busy schedules and changing routines, it's easy to focus on getting where we're going and forget that some of the greatest safety risks can happen before the trip even begins.
