Both
HIP on Health® sets
were revised in 2008. Why did we revise something already so great? Technology has changed and
enables us to provide cleaner/crisper graphics which reproduce much better for you. Along with the graphics we also updated the content! We are also making sure that those clients who previously purchased the
HIP on Health® series will be able to obtain new master copies at a discounted rate.
Discounts are available for our various
products. Please contact
Dr. Charlotte Hendricks for more information about
current specials.

Mini-Posters
Each
8 1/2" x 11" mini-poster addresses a topic related to
the health, safety, and development of young children.
Through clear, concise content and appealing graphics, these
materials attract families' attention and increase awareness of
the topic. Mini-posters can effectively be used in locations
or situations where families do not have a lot of time.
These
reproducible materials can be printed onto brightly colored paper
and laminated for display. Suggested uses for these
mini-posters are:
- Post on
family bulletin boards or near entrance/exit doors.
- Display in
examination or waiting rooms of doctor's offices, health
departments, or clinics.
- Provide
copies as coloring sheets for children to take home.
- Use the
mini-posters as topics for discussion with children.

Information
Sheets
Each
information sheet begins with a humorous cartoon strip, then
presents specific information on the topic. These sheets can
be posted or sent home to parents and families. Use sheets
as handouts during training or add to your agency newsletter to
keep staff and families informed.
Suggested uses for these sheets are:
- Send
sheets home each week to families.
- Copy
sheets into your program or agency newsletter.
- Distribute
information sheets on topics related to specific seasons or
activities, such as "Toy Safety" at holiday time.
- Provide
answers to families' questions on topics such as diaper rash
or biting.
- Distribute
sheets in clinics in response to children's health needs.
