About 70 percent of those hurt are boys. Keep all exercise equipment and weights in a locked room. Make sure treadmills have locks and an automatic stop mechanism. If you must exercise and there is no other adult to supervise children, put them in a stationary activity center or play pen in your direct view. Never place them in a baby walker because they will be able to get to exercise equipment.
Infants can drown in just a few inches of water.
Infants may drown reaching into toilets, diaper pails, ice chests with melted ice, and wading pools. Bathtubs are the second most common site for drowning. Most infants drown when an adult is not present. 6-12 month olds can sit but may not be able to get up if they fall over. Supporting rings with suction cups that stick to the bottom of the bathtub may suddenly release.
