Does my Baby who is learning to walk really need to wear a protective headgear?

Almost all children will bump their heads, especially when they are babies or toddlers and are just learning to roll over, crawl, or walk. These accidents may upset us, but sometimes our anxiety is usually worse than the injury. Falling and bumping your head can be considered as a part of growing up but only if it was guaranteed to result only in a small thud and nothing more significant. Most head injuries in babies are minor HOWEVER some injuries may have long term implications.

Helmets or protective headgears are designed to absorb some of the impact energy should the head hits a solid object. Any kind of energy absorption has the potential to make a difference in the injury outcome to the head/brain.

So 2 wobbly feet, one big head and undeveloped muscles definitely would benefit from a protective headgear.

Why is SafeheadBABY important in the first 2 years?

Every baby learns to do things at his or her own pace. Even when walking seems to happen overnight, it actually takes most babies about hours and hours of practice from the time they pull themselves upright to the time they can walk alone confidently. The head of an infant just learning to sit up or walk is very fragile and vulnerable needing protection at most times especially since they lack a sense of balance and are mostly unsteady on their feet. The soft parts (fontanels) of the infant skull, begin to calcify, the small one at the back of the head at about 3 months, the larger one in front at varying ages up to 18 months. Young children cannot control the movement of their heads. Their heads are large and their legs are shorter in proportion to the rest of their body. SafeheadBABY gives your little one’s head the protection it needs and significantly reduces the chances of your baby sustaining a head injury at this most crucial time where their skulls are most vulnerable ...

Why your child should wear a helmet on a bike, skateboard or scooter:

* Wearing a helmet can reduce the chance of a head injury by 80% * Wearing a kids bike helmet from a young age sets kids up for wearing a helmet as a teen. * Kids skulls are more breakable and delicate they are more prone to injury * It's not that much of a hassle to remember to wear a helmet and it can become an automatic reflex, it's not worth the risk to not wear one. * Helmets come in a wide range of fantastic designs and colours, so look at it as an opportunity to accessorise! TIPS FOR GETTING KIDS TO WEAR HELMET * Take them shopping - Include them in the buying process, get them to choose one they love * Be consistent - tell a kid they must wear a helmet every time, not just sometimes, before long it will become second nature * Fit is key - Make sure the helmet fits them correctly so it is comfortable. * Lead by example - Use a helmet yourself consistently, they will want to be like you.
