Regular health exams and tests can help fi nd problems before they start. They also can help fi nd problems early, when your chances for treatment and cure are better. Which exams and screenings you need depends on your age, health and family history, and lifestyle choices such as what you eat, how active you are, and whether you smoke. To make the most of your next check-up, here are some things to do before you go: • Review your family health history

• Find out if you are due for any general screenings or vaccinations • Write down a list of issues and questions to take with you

Ongoing research by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development suggests that children in quality daycare centers may even have an intellectual edge over those in other kinds of care. When researchers compared kids in quality daycare to those in other, equally

high-quality childcare situations, children in centers performed a little better on tests.
