Celebrate National Safety Month at Monkey Joe’s in Coral Springs

Posted on Jun 22, 2016

June is National Safety Month! This month is about raising awareness and educating the general public about important safety precautions.

In keeping with this month’s safety theme, we are doing our part to help keep your family safe. Whether you are playing at the pool, beach, or our playground, we recommend following these 3 tips to keeping your family safe this summer.

  • Protection from the sun: Sun exposure can add up over time. The Skin Cancer Foundation estimates that 1 in 5 Americans will develop some form of skin cancer in their lifetime and often this is a result of too many sun exposure over time. To help lower your risks, use sunscreen or UV blocking lotions anytime you have extended exposure to the sun!

  • Always supervise children, especially near water: No matter what your children’s age or swimming capabilities are, never leave them alone by a body of water. Never depend on water wings or other inflatable toys to prevent accidents.

  • Choose safe spaces for your child to play: When you bring your family to play at Monkey Joe’s playground in Coral Springs, Florida, you can have peace of mind knowing you are in a safe space! We are able to provide a safe environment for playtime by implementing our “Safety Access Child Control System, or SACCS. The SACCS includes:
    -Properly trained staff
    -Certified jumps with safety mats at all jump entrances and exits
    -Video monitoring and identity bracelets that tell us who is in our play centers
    -Age appropriate play centers with separate jumps for toddlers, 3 years-old and younger and kids 2-12 years-old

Paying attention to these 3 tips this summer can help ensure that you and your family have a fun and safe summer together!

And remember to choose Monkey Joe’s indoor playground in Coral Springs, Florida for your child’s playtime this summer and all year long. We are located just minutes off SR-869 on Royal Palm Boulevard at the Plaza at Royal Palm in Coral Springs.
