Bicycle helmets are one of the most effective ways to prevent serious and life-altering head injuries – including facial fractures and concussions – when a child is involved in a bicycle accident.
Here are some guidelines to help get your child to wear a road-safe bicycle helmet:
- Be a role model for your child - always wear a helmet.
- Offer praise to your child when he or she correctly puts a helmet on without being reminded.
- Allow your child to choose the style of helmet, provided it falls under American National Standards Institute or Snell Memorial Foundation guidelines for helmet protocol.
