Cribs for Kids Pack-N-Play Giveaway
Advertisement
Greene County Public Health will hold a Cribs for Kids Pack-N-Play Giveaway on Tuesday, June 16, from 1:00–3:00 p.m. at 360 Wilson Drive in Xenia.
The event will help families keep babies and young children safe. Families can get Infant Survival Kits that include a Pack-N-Play (cribette), fitted sheet, sleep sack, and safe sleep information.
To get a free Pack-N-Play, families must live in Greene County and either be at least 32 weeks pregnant or have a baby under one year old. No sign-up is needed—walk-ins are welcome while supplies last.
The event will also teach families about safe sleep for babies. Even though infant deaths have dropped since the “Back to Sleep” campaign started in 1994, unsafe sleep is still the leading cause of death for babies after the first month. Three babies die each week in Ohio because of unsafe sleep. Babies are safest when they sleep Alone, on their Back, in an empty Crib (ABCs of Safe Sleep).
Families are encouraged to watch these safe sleep videos on the public health website at www.greenecophoh.gov/announcements before coming:

• Pediatrician loses baby to SIDS
• Why babies should sleep on their back
