FEISTY LITTLE FINGERS: ESSENTIAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AT HOME
Seeing your tiny tots at their playful best is as delightful as it gets but it’s important to make sure that they don’t go too far and cause pandemonium or even hurt themselves. In this article, Happy Cubs lists some of those quintessential safety precautions when at home.
1. Pin your furniture to the walls to prevent them from toppling over.
2. Secure drawers with locks so your tots don’t pull them apart.
3. Make sure that electrical wires are out of reach.
4. Ensure that electrical appliances such as toasters, dryers, vacuum cleaners, razors etc. are kept at a safe distance.
5. Sharp objects such as forks, knives, tools etc. should be locked in drawers or kept away from your kids.
6. Close the lids of toilets at home and ensure that they are fastened with locks.
7. Detergents and other cleaning liquids are hazardous for your kids and should be stored inside.
8. Soft toys, action figures, and play sets pack choking hazards. So you should ensure that your kids avoid fiddling with them inappropriately.
9. Make sure that your tots avoid fiddling with the washing machine and stay away from it at all times.
10. Any product has instructions from the manufacturer which are generally ignored. It’s important to read them to keep yourself abreast with all the dos and don’ts.
11. An important part of parenting is to make sure that your kids only watch what’s appropriate for their age on TV. Securing your set’s remote control with the child lock features is highly important.
Keeping a watch on your tots is a 24×7 task but the price paid for negligence is often high. So these precautions ensure that they are safe while maintaining a great atmosphere at home.
