How can I make my baby's crib safe? Choose a crib with bars no more than 2 3/8 inches apart. If the space between the bars is too wide, your baby could slip through and strangle between the bars. Use a ruler to check the width of the space between the bars. Weave a cloth between the bars if they are too far apart. The crib should not have corner posts that stick up. Corner posts can be catchpoints for items placed around a child's neck or clothing worn by the child. Unscrew the corner posts or saw them off. The mattress should fit snugly against the sides of the crib. An infant can suffocate if its head or body becomes wedged between the mattress and the sides of the crib. No more than 2 fingers should fit between the mattress and the side of the crib. Place rolled towels between the mattress and the crib if the mattress is too small. When your baby can push up, you should remove bumpers, pillows and toys from the crib including toys that are strung across the crib or a playpen. Your baby can step on these things or use them to climb out of the crib and fall. What else can I do to keep the bedroom safe? Remove any cords that could get around the baby's neck. Keep the crib away from electric cords, drapes and curtain cords, or tie up the cords so they are less than 6 inches long and out of your child's reach. Mobiles and hanging crib toys should also be kept out of your baby's reach. Remove strings on crib toys and pacifiers. How can I make the kitchen safe? Turn pot handles toward the back of the stove. Use the back burners on the stove for cooking. Keep hot foods and drinks out of reach – away from the edge of a counter or table. Keep knives and other sharp objects out of reach or in locked or "childproof" drawers or cabinets. Wind up appliance cords and keep them out of reach. How can I keep medicines and poisons out of reach? Keep medicines, vitamins, cleaning supplies and other poisons in locked cabinets. Children can't tell the difference between medicine and candy. If your child swallows something he or she shouldn't, call a poison control center right away. Keep the telephone number by your phone. How can I make bath time safe? Because children can drown in very little water, you should always stay with your child when he or she is in the bathtub. NEVER leave your child alone or with an older child in the bathroom or tub – not even for a minute. If you have to answer the phone or doorbell, take your child with you. Always test the water before putting your child in the tub. Young children have tender skin and are easily burned if the water in the sink or bathtub is too hot. Set your water heater to 120 F or less. To check the temperature of the hot water from the faucet, run the water over a meat or candy thermometer for 3 minutes. Keep electrical items such as hair dryers away from the water. Unplug them when you aren't using them. They can cause an electric shock if they fall into the sink or bathtub while they're plugged in. How can I be sure toys are safe? Choose carefully when shopping for toys. Look for toys that are well made and appropriate for your child’s age. Watch out for toys that have sharp edges, small parts or sharp points. Young children pull, prod and twist toys. Look for toys with tightly secured parts. Look for safety information on the toy or label such as "Not recommended for children under 3 years of age," or "non-toxic" on toys likely to end up in little mouths. Look for "washable/hygienic materials" on stuffed toys and dolls. Avoid marbles, balls, games with balls and other toys that have parts smaller than 1 3/4 inches in diameter or smaller than 2 inches long. These products can choke young children if swallowed. Keep toys meant for older children away from babies and toddlers. What about houseplants? Plants should be placed out of your child's reach. Some houseplants are poisonous. Call your local poison control center to find out if your plants are poisonous. How can I make stairs safe? Use toddler gates at the top and bottom of stairs. Do not use gates with big spaces between the slats – children can get trapped in the openings. How can I make windows safe? Keep children away from windows to prevent falls. Screens are made to keep bugs out – not to keep children in. Use window guards to keep children from falling. Keep chairs and other furniture away from windows so children can't climb up. If possible, open windows from the top, not the botto

Child Safety Tip

Are your children in line or online?

Are your children in line or online?

Online chat rooms, message boards and instant messaging are all the rage with today's preteen to teenage children. However these communication tools are also the feeding grounds of some of the worst predators on the planet. LEARN how to keep your children safe online!
There are numerous sex offender mapping sites on the web. Many of which are free. These sites usually have convicted child molesters, rapists and other violent crimes. Utilize these to your advantage. At the minimum, know where the registered sex offenders are in your area. Keep in mind these are only the convicted and registered offenders, child molestation often goes on for long periods of time until it is ever reported.
Having regular talks with your children about what they should and should not do online is very important. The people they meet online are very often not who they appear to be.

 Keep the following list in mind when talking with your children.

Make sure you know of any "friends" they have met online. Never allow a physical meeting of an online "friend" without being present.  It is a better idea to disallow physical meetings of online "friends" all together. Make sure you children always use an alias that cannot be tracked back to them. Using a real name makes locating your children too easy. Advise your children not to reveal personal information that  can be used to identify them.  Especially, do not allow your children to say where they live, play or go to school. familywatchdog.com Be aware of online bullying. When it comes to chat with schoolmates and other friends, bullying often extends to online activities. If your child is being bullied, get the bully's parents and school involved in correcting the problem. If your child is being the bully and you are feeling unsuccessful in resolving the problem, seek some outside help. There are numerous resources available by searching the web.

Parental controls are a valuable asset even if it you don't try to use them to block anything. Almost all parental control software or appliances have a monitor only mode. Using the tool this way will keep kids from looking for a bypass method so quickly. As we talk about on our parental controls page. Any of control can be bypassed. Unless you have seasoned network security professional installing your parental controls, don't trust that they will keep your children from doing what ever they want online. Remember once your child figures out how to bypass the controls, you will also lose the ability to know what they are doing online.

It is much better to monitor and have discussions with your children when they do something of risk online than risk that they will learn how to defeat the technology and you.Adults are also victims of online sexual predators. Just because your are grown and supporting yourself doesn't mean you should feel safe forging friendships online and revealing personal information.
