5-year-old child choked on a grape, Squamish educator Amanda Campbell saved her and warned about choking hazards from certain foods.

Squamish early childhood educator Amanda Campbell saved a 5-year-old child who choked on a grape, leading her to warn parents and caregivers about choking hazards from foods like hot dogs, popcorn, olives, and marshmallows. She emphasizes the importance of cutting up these items for children until they're 6 or 8 years old, as their windpipes remain small like a straw's size. Campbell calls for spreading awareness about cutting up food for young children and possibly introducing first aid education earlier in schools.
