THE FACTS:Infants have higher rates of accidental injury-related death than older children. The most common preventable injuries are from suffocation, drowning, falls and motor vehicle accidents.
Preschoolers are developing motor skills and at the same time, they have poor impulse control and underdeveloped judgment. Their innate curiosity and fearlessness can lead them into many potentially tragic situations which could result in such things as accidental poisoning, drowning, fire and burn related injury, pedestrian injury or airway obstruction.
Children with physical or psychological developmental disabilities have higher rates of injury. Blindness or deafness, may also increase the risk of pedestrian injury, burns, drowning or accidental poisoning.
