Here is a small checklist to childproof your home –
- Keep all your medications, drugs, anti-insect durgs, sprays, cleaners etc locked up in a cabinet that your child cannot possibly reach. It is also advised to lock it and keep the key with you.
- Keep the lower cabinets in the kitchen with lighter utensils and some toys so that the child can play will the parent cooks.
- Install child resistant locks on all cabinets.
- Keep your perfumes, moisturizers and other cosmetics also locked up. Children have a habit of imitating parents so they might end up using or rather misusing your toiletaries and cosmetics.
- Keep all the electrical items out of the reach of your children.
- Turn the pot handles towards the backside while cooking. Children tend to grab the handles while playing in the kitchen.
- Do not leave your child alone in the bathtub.
- Pad or tape up the sharp edges of the household furniture.
- Secure loose tiles or carpets with the help of glue.
- Keep all your electrical appliancies and electronic goods unplugged normally.
- Install safety plugs to the outlets in children’s reach.
- Keep small things out of the reach of children or they may put them in their mouth and probably choke.
- Don’t leave food or water on the floor.
- Keep plastic bags out the children’s reach.
