Health Education Lesson Plan Kits
Health Education Kits are “lessons in a box” for teachers, scouts, church groups or anyone to use. These creative, hands-on kits contain multiple activities, children’s books, realia, DVD’s and more to teach kids about a variety of health topics. Call us to reserve a kit for your group.
Searching for health information
Searching for health information on the web can lead to confusing results. MedlinePlus, a service of the U.S. National Library of Medicine, has created a webpage that teaches us how to search and then evaluate health information on the web: Evaluating Health Information.
The center librarian is also available for group presentations on finding and evaluating Internet health information.
Call 330-543-8180, or email your request to the center at family@akronchildrens.org.
Our History
Akron Children's Family Resource Center honors Dr. Louis Lame, who was a well-respected pediatrician at Children’s Hospital. Upon his retirement in 1986, grateful patients and families established the Lame Fund as a tribute to his many years of devoted service. Contributions to the Lame Fund help keep the materials current.
