Although I received free products to share this giveaway, all opinions are my own.
As Baby Safety Month comes to a close, I thought I would share a little round up of the safety tips on the blog plus have a little giveaway. This post is not to be judgmental, it is just to inform. I have made almost ALL of these mistakes along the way and I hope you can learn from me.

My best tip is to push tables against the wall if there is a lamp or anything else with a power cord--preferably in such a way that the cord is trapped between the table and wall. Babies will pull on power cords until it falls off!
ReplyDeleteMy Number 1 safety tip is to always keep Toys out of the way of traffic areas! I have seen way too many bikes ran over or tires get flat from Kids toys
ReplyDeleteMy number one stressed tip aside from the general "be careful".. is to secure everything. That goes for heavy, sharp and electric objects.
ReplyDeleteI am a first time mommy, so everything is new for me. I learned a lot of great tips from this awesome post. My favorite safety tip is Tips for Co-Sleeping Safely. Thank You So Much for sharing this helpful topic!! <3 <3

My tip is to crawl around on the floor and try to see your house from the point of view of a baby. Then you'll notice things that are dangerous that you never realized were dangerous before.
ReplyDeleteMy #1 to would be to keep toys away from stairs and places people walk regularly! It is so easy to not see these while you are holding a child, laundry basket, etc!
ReplyDeleteMy tips is to make sure furniture is bolted to the wall, so climbing toddlers don't tip the furniture onto themselves.
ReplyDeleteI keep all household cleaners and chemicals high up so baby can't reach them, or under lock and key.
ReplyDeleteDo not keep any cleaners, medication etc... in the lower cabinets.
ReplyDeleteI use bumpers on the fireplace.
ReplyDeleteMy number one safety tip- keep the floors clean!!! get a vacuum that works on all floors and use it daily. so many choking hazards that we don't even think of end up on the floor and forgotten about. Rocks from the bottom of shoes, buttons falling off clothes, food, etc.
ReplyDeleteMy number 1 safety tip is to bolt furniture to the wall to prevent them from falling.
ReplyDeletewe have hard word floors, so we have to be careful of things moving easily. We really had to baby proof our living room.
