The textbook also focuses on the physical well-being of children by looking at different forms of abuse and neglect, nutrition, childhood diseases and safety.  The textbook also gives an overall view of the different types of family structures that exist in our modern society and how these family structures can impact on the care and well-being of children.

Under the topic dealing with health and hygiene, common childhood diseases are explained so that the ECD practitioner would be able to identify and know how to react to different illnesses.

Various issues relating to food and nutrition are covered including eating disorders and nutritional deficiency in children.  The book also touches on how culture, religion and poverty influence nutrition.  The topic covering safety gives practical tips on how to deal with emergency situations.
