Answer to Question 1

Tdap
Tdap has a full concentration of tetanus and lower concentrations of diphtheria and pertussis that is designed for older children and adults.

Answer to Question 2

Children of this age are just beginning to wonder about death. They are not able to fully comprehend it. Children should be given very basic explanations. Allow the child to discuss the topic in a general way. Children often view dying as a type of sleep.
