It’s only natural to desire a memorable Christmas experience for your toddler if you are a parent. While you might wish to share family traditions with your kids, it is important to consider all safety tips that’d keep them right out of harm’s way this holiday. Here are pro tips to make this Christmas as safe and enjoyable as possible for your toddler. Enjoy!
Artificial Trees tend to be More Practical
It is a tradition for many families to pick a Christmas tree for themselves during the holiday (sometimes adorned with Christmas ornaments). But still, a live tree may be harmful to kids. Usually, as the tree ages, it begins to dry out and shed its needles. And the chances of your toddler getting into the mess get increasingly high.
Also, the traditional Christmas tree requires daily watering, and it is common for toddlers to wander right into the potentially hazardous water. But today, young families are opting for artificial Christmas trees to avoid safety concerns. There is a variety of artificial Christmas trees available in different sizes—6 foot, 7 foot, and even 10 foot artificial Christmas trees, colors, and designs so you may find one that’s for your home and family.
Use Shatterproof Christmas Ornaments
Often, ornaments are handed down from one generation to another within families. But what would happen if your precious and fragile ornament gets broken? When it comes to protecting your children and any prized ornament you may own, the best you can do is to use only shatterproof Christmas ornaments.
Several beautiful designs of shatterproof ornaments are available that will look great on any Christmas tree. And families with toddlers can rest assured that if one of these ornaments falls to the ground, it won’t break into a thousand pieces.
Keeping your ornaments on high shelves and out of children’s reach, will prevent your kid from getting hurt easily.
