Abstract

Experiences with animals at home, in child care, and on field trips can provide great learning opportunities for children of all ages; however, even healthy animals can be infected with and spread potentially harmful diseases. Some diseases can be life threatening to young children, especially those less than 5 years of age. The following recommendations will reduce young children’s risk of getting ill and help to ensure a healthy, educational experience.
