New Website for Kids with Asthma
The National Asthma Council of Australia has a new website on asthma designed with kids in mind.
http://www.kidswithasthma.com.au
The educational site includes a section on basic facts about asthma, a section on how to manage asthma, it talks about what to do during an attack, and it has a game section that makes learning about asthma and looking for triggers fun.
The design of the site is excellent. It contains lots of vivid colors that will attract kids. The large tabs across the top make navigation a breeze.
I would like to say that the website seems to not reflect Australia's rich ethnic diversity. I hope that a future update might help all children to see themselves in those pages.
EXTRA: On April 18th MetroHealth will provide free health screenings for those in the Latino community. For more information check out Cleveland.com or contact Ami Peacock at (216) 778-8328.
