The day has finally arrived when your little one takes his or her first steps and explores every corner of the house ever since. That\’s a joyous occasion, but now it\’s also the little plug\’s turn to be safe. It\’s up to you to make sure that dangerous objects and equipment are securely fastened so that your baby doesn\’t get into something dangerous and injure herself.
Hazardous Locations
Do you have stairs in your home and are justifiably worried that your toddler will fall down the stairs and get hurt? Get a stair barrier. These are wooden or metal barriers with a special locking system to prevent children from opening them on their own without assistance. You don\’t have to worry about breaking expensive railings. No screws or nails are needed. In fact, the barrier is designed to allow you to choose the size you want to extend and secure the posts to the width you need.
Electricity!
Toddlers also like to explore electrical outlets in the house. They then try to put metal objects into the outlets. We all know that this kind of behavior can cause electric shocks. So, buy an outlet protector that prevents children from plugging anything into an outlet. This is a great way to keep children out of sight and out of mind. This is a very inexpensive item, but it is definitely worth the peace of mind.
Sharp corners
Look around your home. Do you see the corners of the coffee table and dresser? Yes, they do. When a child starts exploring around the room, he or she may see his or her favorite toy in the corner, get distracted, and stop abruptly in front of the corner of the table, but it may be too late. So, put plastic protectors on sharp corners in your home. They are transparent, so you don\’t have to worry about them interfering with the look of your furniture. Attach it with the double-sided tape provided.
