• Your home is a place to relax and live safely
  according to Ben Pure. You may have installed
  safety devices such as fire or smoke alarms,
  overload protectors, and so forth but you must
  ensure that your home is safe from the point of
  view of children.
• Kids have a natural tendency of exploring
  everything around them. This inquisitiveness
  exposes them to several dangers at home as well
  as outdoors. There are many fatal accidents due
  to unintended actions.
• Seven out of ten children who succumb to injuries
  due to household accidents are less than four
  years of age. This proves that the extent of risk
  they are exposed to even at indoors.

• You can list several incidences that may cause
  household accidents. Following are the commonest
  accidents
• Trip and fall injuries
• Burn injuries
• Poisoning due to accidental swallowing of
  chemicals
• Electric shocks
• Choking due to foreign objects
• Insect bites
• More numbers of accidents that involve young
  children are found to take place at homes because
  children stay at indoors more. You can avoid
  these by constantly supervising activities of
  children, especially toddlers.
• Household injuries can be due to number of
  reasons, opines Benjamin Pure. Children must be
  safeguarded against dangers of water in swimming
  pools, bathtubs, and kitchens. You should be
  watchful of childrens actions that may lead to
  tripping and falling.

• Always keep hazardous substances such as
  cleaners, pesticides, and other household and
  garden chemicals, out of their reach. The only
  defense your child has against dangers is your
  alertness.
• You must have a first-aid kit handy at all times.
  It is also advisable to learn first aid
  techniques. You can also engage service providers
  offering childproofing as well as pest control
  services.
• Even after taking all necessary precautionary
  measures one cannot be 100 percent sure of
  childrens safety. The single most important
  safety precaution is seamless adult supervision.
• There is no substitute for a parents watchful
  eye to keep the child away from any dangers at
  home as well as outdoors. Ben Pure advises every
  adult at home to take care of children and
  safeguard them against the evils of accidents.
