safety first
safe from harm
Electrical sockets tend to be perfectly
situated at baby height, where the
temptation to stick tiny fingers in the
holes is all too great! Protect your little
one by using plastic socket covers.
And a fireguard is a must if you have
any open fires – curious babies have
little concept of danger, and could try
to touch them. Now is also a good
time to fit smoke and carbon
monoxide detectors in your home, if
you haven’t done se already.
