Use nonskid backing on rugs and make sure carpets are securely tacked down. Remove breakables from low tables and shelves. Remove small toys and other choking hazards from around your child. Tie cords of blinds, curtains and appliances up out of reach. Do not use a mobile baby walker.
Stationary walkers are much safer.
When cooking, use the back burners and turn pot handles inward. To prevent drowning, empty all water from bathtubs and pails, keep the door to the bathroom closed and never leave your child alone near any container of water. Use life jackets on boats at all times. If you must have a gun in the house keep it and the bullets in a separate locked place. Keep a list of emergency numbers near the phone.
