Flu season is right around the corner! Did you know that it’s best to get your flu shot by the end of October? Here are a few places you can consider to get your flu shot:
- Walmart
- Target
- Rite Aid
- Walgreens
We know sweet, sticky treats will be consumed this month - and while we can’t stop it, we can encourage you and your family to keep those fangs on fleek!
Don’t let the sweets get the best of you. Consider offering simple rewards for your kids like a few extra minutes before bedtime for fun or reading, when they successfully brush their teeth twice a day and floss at least once per day.
