Bedroom
Look around your bedroom and you'll soon see why you should always remember this golden rule - when there's a young child about, shut the bedroom door to keep them out!
- Unplug hairdryers, hair straighteners, curling tongs or heated rollers immediately after use and put them well out of reach in a safe place to cool.
- Never leave cosmetics, toiletries, pills or perfumes within reach as these can be highly poisonous to a young child.
- Check for trailing flexes from table lamps and other electrical equipment, hiding them away behind furniture wherever possible. Insert plastic safety-plugs into all empty electrical sockets.
- Never fall asleep with a young child in your bed as you could roll over and crush or suffocate them.
- Place a protective guard in front of heaters and radiators.
- Wherever possible, move climbable furniture away from bedroom and landing windows which should always be kept closed or fitted with safety latches.
- Never leave a young child to play unsupervised in your bedroom.
- Remember the golden rule - when there's a child about, shut the bedroom door to keep them out!
