You probably think that your home is a very safe place. But this may not be true if you have children coming to stay. Here are some tips to prevent accidents.
First look at the bedroom, where the children are going to sleep. Make sure the beds are not under a window, in case a child tries to climb out. If a very small child is going to sleep in the bed, you could put some pillows on the floor next to the bed, in case the child falls out.
The next place to check is the bathroom. Many people keep medicines in a drawer or on a shelf above the washbasin. But this can be dangerous, as children may find them and think they are sweets. You should leave them in a locked cupboard.
Finally, have a look at the kitchen, which is the most dangerous room in the house for children. Knives should be kept in drawers which children can't reach,
and make sure that all cleaning liquids are in high cupboards.
If you follow this simple advice, children who come to stay will never be at risk in your home.
