How do stove guards work?

Stove Guard

Minimize your children's risk of getting burned. An important product to further safety in the kitchen is a stove guard or shield, which puts a barrier between your hot burners and your child's hands. The guard attaches to the stove so children can't reach past it but adults can still access the burners. Prince Lionheart and Safety 1st are two of the brands that make this kitchen safety product. Both are adjustable to fit your stove style and dimensions. As with any products for kitchen safety for kids, make sure that you follow directions to correctly install the guard, and that it is secure. Test it yourself before allowing your child in the kitchen. Also, never rely on this barrier alone to keep your child safe. Still take the time to teach your child that the stove is hot, and never leave a child unattended in the kitchen.
