A 2-year-old girl in Idaho suffered second-degree burns while riding a playground slide Thursday afternoon, her mother said.
Stephanie Luker told KPVI that her daughter, Ariadne, was playing on a plastic slide when she said her hands hurt.
Luker said her daughter's hands were red and began to blister by the time they got home.
Luker spoke to a nurse over the phone to determine if Ariadne required emergency treatment. Luker told KPVI that the nurse was surprised that such serious burns occurred on a plastic slide.
Ariadne's hands will heal, but Luker wanted to warn other parents about the potential dangers that even plastic slides pose during the summer.
