Parents, let’s watch this compilation of super simple but creative and effective tips below to reduce the worry when looking after your child in your own home!
This clip introduces some tips to help parents protect their children from common dangers in the house.

1. Use rubber bands to “protect” rolls of toilet paper
Children often like to play with rolls of toilet paper, scattering them throughout the house, and the most dangerous thing is when they bite or put the paper in their mouth. Therefore, parents can solve this problem with a very simple trick, which is to use rubber bands to secure the roll of toilet paper.
 


2. Use belts to secure bookshelves

Just like rolls of toilet paper, with books placed at a low height, within reach of children, they often like to scatter them around the house, and there are many cases where heavy books can fall on a child’s head or legs. To keep the books in place and ensure the child’s safety, parents can use belts to wrap around the bookshelves to secure the books.
 


3. Bundle power cords together

Individual power cords are very dangerous for children because when they pull on them, heavy objects like speakers, DVD players, or even TVs can fall on them. Therefore, using the bundled cables that are often provided with electronic devices to bundle individual power cords together will be much safer for children.
 


4. Use socks or bandages to wrap small indoor plants

With this method, you will not only protect your child but also prevent pots from breaking when dropped by the child.
 


5. Secure the drawers

Drawers always attract the attention and curiosity of children because they like to pull them out and push them in, which can be dangerous as it may trap a child’s hand. The clip suggests many creative ways for parents to secure the drawers, such as using rubber bands, plastic molds, shoelaces, plastic rings, etc.
