First Aid Word Search
First aid is the care given right after an injury, before a doctor or ambulance takes over. Simple steps make a real difference: pressure on a bleeding wound, cool running water on a burn, rest and ice for a sprain. Worth reviewing for babysitters, coaches, hikers and anyone who keeps a kit in the car.
