By following a few simple safety tips, you can help prevent injuries. Learn to recognize hazards and prevent injuries. Whenever small children are around, close and lock windows. If you need ventilation open windows that children can not reach. Keep furniture away from windows.
Children can quickly climb to window ledges or sills - and fall.
They may injure themselves when climbing or be strangled. Do not depend on insect screens to keep children from falling out of the windows. These screens are not childproof. They are designed to keep insects out - not to keep children in.
