December 4, 2009, Newsletter Issue #198: Garbage can
Tip of the Week
The saying, “Out of sight, out of mind,” is particularly true when it comes to your garbage can. Purchase a model that has a tight lid on it and store the whole thing underneath your kitchen counter where your child won't see it. This is an important step in creating safety in the kitchen, since many of the things you throw in your garbage can could be dangerous if they got into a child's hands. Childproofing experts also recommend that you go an extra step toward kitchen safety and sanitation by adding a safety lock on the cabinet to further restrict access to your garbage can. If you have no room to stow away your garbage can, one of the many home safety tips for your kitchen that you can try is finding a toilet lock that fits securely on the can to hold the cover tight. This will help prevent your child from being able to open the can.
