❄️🚗 Winter Coats & Car Seats: What Parents Need to Know! 🚗❄️
Abrigos de Invierno y Asientos de Coche para Niños: ¡Lo Que los Padres Necesitan Saber!

đź‘¶ Babies: Dress your baby in thin, warm layers. After buckling them securely into their car seat, place a blanket OVER the harness straps, keeping it away from their face.

Bebés: Vista a su bebé con capas de ropa delgadas y abrigadas. Una vez que lo haya sujetado de forma segura en su asiento de coche para niños, coloque una cobija POR ENCIMA de los arneses, manteniéndola alejada de su rostro.

đź§’ Toddlers & Young Children: Skip the bulky coat while buckled in! Instead, use a thin fleece jacket or place their winter coat on backwards OVER the buckled harness to keep them warm.

Niños pequeños: ¡Evite el uso de abrigos voluminosos mientras estén sujetos en el asiento! En su lugar, utilice una chaqueta delgada de felpa o coloque el abrigo de invierno al revés, POR ENCIMA del arnés ya abrochado, para mantenerlos abrigados.

👦 Older Kids: Make sure seat belts fit snugly across the shoulder, chest, and hips—not over bulky winter clothing. Unzip or remove thick coats when necessary.

Niños mayores: Asegúrese de que los cinturones de seguridad queden bien ajustados sobre el hombro, el pecho y las caderas; no deben colocarse por encima de ropa de invierno voluminosa. Desabroche o quite los abrigos gruesos de ser necesario.

âś… Remember: Harness straps should fit snugly against your child's body. Bulky clothing can compress during a crash, leaving dangerous extra space between your child and the straps.

Recuerde: Las correas del arnés deben quedar bien ajustadas al cuerpo de su niño. La ropa voluminosa puede comprimirse en caso de accidente, dejando un peligroso espacio adicional entre su niño y las correas.

❤️ Warm kids are important, but SAFE kids are our priority!
Que los niños estén bien abrigados es importante, ¡pero que estén SEGUROS es nuestra prioridad!

MEA Break is coming up!

The C&TC team wants to share a few helpful reminders to help keep children healthy, safe, and appropriately supervised during the break.

In Minnesota, many factors are used to determine when a child can stay home alone. Consider your child’s age, maturity, safety skills, and ability to handle an emergency.

General DHS guidance:

· 7 & under: Should not be left alone

· 8–10: Up to 3 hours

· 11–13: Up to 12 hours

· 14–15: Up to 24 hours

· 16–17: More than 24 hours with an emergency plan and adult backup

· Babysitting: Children under 11 should not be responsible for other children

Before leaving your child home alone or in charge of younger children, make sure they know who to contact, what to do in an emergency, and how to stay safe.

A little planning can help make MEA Break a safe and healthy break for everyone!

These are general educational guidelines. For questions about your specific situation, contact your county social services or Tribal office.

¡Se acercan las vacaciones de MEA!

El equipo de C&TC quiere compartir algunos recordatorios útiles para mantener a los niños saludables, seguros y bien supervisados durante las vacaciones.

En Minnesota, se toman en cuenta muchos factores para decidir cuándo un niño puede quedarse solo en casa. Piense en la edad de su hijo, su madurez, sus habilidades para mantenerse seguro y su capacidad para manejar una emergencia.

GuĂ­a general de DHS:

• 7 años o menos: No deben quedarse solos

• 8–10 años: Hasta 3 horas

• 11–13 años: Hasta 12 horas

• 14–15 años: Hasta 24 horas

• 16–17 años: Más de 24 horas con un plan de emergencia y respaldo de un adulto

• Cuidado de niños: Los menores de 11 años no deberían encargarse de otros niños

Antes de dejar a su hijo solo en casa o a cargo de otros más pequeños, asegúrese de que sepa a quién contactar, qué hacer en una emergencia y cómo mantenerse seguro.

💙 ¡Un poco de planificación puede ayudar a que las vacaciones de MEA sean seguras y saludable para todos!

Estas son pautas educativas generales. Para preguntas sobre su situaciĂłn especĂ­fica, contacte a servicios sociales de su condado o a la oficina tribal.

Heavier bike = longer stopping distance. E-bikes are heavier and faster, so start braking earlier to make sure you can stop safely. Stopping can take even longer if you have cargo or additional riders on your e-bike. ⏱️
