1. 3 Most Important Home Safety
Measures
Home is the place where children learn and grow up. It’s the
place where they find love, care and comfort. It's where they
can touch, see, experience and explore the world around them,
allowing their bodies and minds to develop properly. And it's
also the place where children should feel safe and secure.
However, injuries at home have become a leading cause of
accidental death among children. As per statistics as many as
20 million medical visits and over 15,000 deaths occur each
year due to accidents in home. A number of media reports
bring attention to some of the possible accidents that could
occur at home, such as choking on balloons, bitten by a pet, or
finger or hand stuck in the door.
Fortunately, many home injuries are avoidable through
prevention and education. Parents can take quite a few
proactive steps to keep children safe and to childproof the
home. Following are a few tips that can help you do just that:
Safety from Drowning: Splashing water around at playtime or
bath time is great fun for many children; nevertheless, water
also presents numerous possible hazards. It is possible to
drown in less than an inch of water in bathtubs, pools or sinks,
making them a source of great risk. To avoid this risk, it's
important to prevent such situations that may cause accidents.

2. A child should never be left unattended near or in water, even
if it’s for just few seconds. If the doorbell or phone rings
while your child or baby is in the bathtub, wrap him in a towel
and carry him with you. Don’t leave him alone in the bathtub.
It can take just few seconds for a child to drown. If you are
leaving your baby with a caregiver, ensure that he or she
knows the safety rules you follow.
Safety from doors: Cupboards and doors can all hurt the
fingers of children. Children below five are mainly prone to
injuries from jammed finger, and the one year olds being the
most likely to get hurt. Fingers jammed in hinges and doors
can result in fractured, crushed or even finger amputation. The
hinge areas of doors regularly cause the worst injuries,
particularly for children that are aged one to two years old.
This can be easily avoided using a Door finger guard. There
are many who have installed door finger guard to keep their
children from having their fingers stuck in a door. These
guards can be easily installed and will make your home a lot
safer. Failure to installing a Door finger guard can easily
cause unwanted accidents.
Safety from Firearms: As per estimates over 40 percent of all
homes have a firearm. Choosing to have one makes it your
responsibility to handle it safely. Never store it loaded with
ammunition and keep it locked in a safe place that cannot be
accessed by children. Locked cabinets and Gun safes are other
options for secure storage. It is important to talk with children
about the dangers of guns. As per the recommendation of
