Baby-proofing the Kitchen
Here are some tips on how to make your kitchen more safe for your little ones, courtesy of Heloise:
- Use special latches on drawers and cabinets to prevent access to breakable or toxic items like bottles of cleaning agents.
- Keep knives and other sharp items in an area where they cannot be reached.
- Turn pot handles inward, away from the front of the stove.
- Keep household cleaners out of sight.
- “Never, never underestimate the reach and will of a curious baby.”
- Get down to the child’s level, literally. See what they see.
