We all want to keep our children as safe as possible. A good way to start can be to keep a close eye on their environment — inside and out — and paying attention to the gear we use in their daily lives. Find out more about safety.
From the moment you learn you're pregnant, keeping your baby safe is your number one concern. Babies and small children depend on their parents to keep them safe, and, at the same time, to allow them to explore their world and make new discoveries every day. Safety means looking at the environment and matching it up to your own baby's abilities at that time. It means making changes in the environment as your baby moves through each development stage. Anticipating what you'll need to do to keep danger out of your baby's reach is the key part of the safety game. Setting up safe ways and places for your baby to explore works better than planning to watch your baby every second ? an impossible task.
The safety rules change with your baby's age, but some general principles of safety apply to every child. Read the following checklist for the best safety rules of thumb.
