Kia auahi kore, kia hākohu kore te waka

He takahi ture te kai hikareti, te hākohu i te waka me he tamaiti kei roto kāore anō kia 18 ōna tau.

Ko te momi i te waka he tūkino i te hauora tamaiti

  • Ko ngā tamariki ka ngongo i te auahi taurua o te hikareti, ka kaha ake te pāngia e te mate pūkahu, e te taringa hoi me te huangō.  
  • Mō te taiohi he whanaunga, he hoa hākohu, kai hikareti ōna, ka kaha ake te tūpono ka hākohu, ka kai hikareti hoki ko ia.

Ko te auahi taurua he whenumitanga o ngā hau o te hiku wera o te hikareti me te auahi ka puhaina e te kaimomi ki te hau. Neke atu i te 200 ōna paihana, ka takea mai i ētahi te mate pukupuku.

Te auahi taurua me tō waka

  • E kore e puta ngā paihana katoa i te huaki noa i te matapihi.
  • Ka noho roa ngā paihana ahakoa ngaro pea te auahi me te kakara.
  • Kāore he putanga i te waka e karo ai te tamaiti i te auahi taurua.

He āwhina e auahi kore ai, e hākohu kore ai te waka

  • Whakatapua - me auahi kore, me hākohu kore te waka i ngā wā katoa, ahakoa ko wai.
  • Tahia ngā paru o te ipu kawe ngārehu.
  • Tukua te pūahi hikareti kia ngaro.
  • Whakamōhiotia atu - tāpirihia he tohupiri auahi kore, hākohu kore ki te matapihi o te waka. Tonoa he tohupiri i Te Whatu Ora resource store | Smokefree & Vapefree me Smokefree/Vapefree – HealthEd
  • Me waiho anake i te tākohu ki te wāhi e kore e kitea, e taea. Kia tika te whakatauira atu, me kaua e kai hikareti, e hākohu me he tamaiti i konā. Ka iti iho te tūpono ka tahuri atu ko ia ki te kai hikareti, ki te hākohu.
