Child Proofing Your Home

Babies and children are the most likely family members to be injured in a home accident. They are active, creative, and curious, and no place is safe. One way to anticipate dangers for your children is to go through every room in your home on your knees. This puts you at a child’s height and you will readily see hazards you might never notice otherwise. Remember that children have no understanding of the dangers around them and they will climb on, crawl under or over, taste and handle everything in their environment. If something can be done in a dangerous manner, they will do it. So make sure they can grow and explore safely!
