Keep Your Kids Safe: Anchor Down Your TVs!

By | |
4 Comments

“One Child Dies Every Three Weeks from a TV Tipping Over” According to SafeKids.orgI knew that this type of accident happens, but I didn’t realize that it was that much. When we finally made the jump to the latest television technology a year or so ago, I insisted that the tv had to be safe for little ones. Whether we mounted it to the wall, tethered it to a table or secured it to a mounting tv stand, it didn’t matter to me. I just wanted to ensure that our children and our friends’ kids would be safe. I was … Continue reading →

When SnuggleBugz contacted me to check out their online store, I was very excited! I have heard of this Canadian store before and, in fact, I have driven past it before while on the highway and was very curious about their childrens’ products! We received a Diono Monterey Booster Seat for the car for review. I couldn’t believe how heavy the box was for this booster seat, but this is a good thing because it means that the seat is well constructed, and that it is! This seat is solid. First of all, the high back booster allows for extra … Continue reading →

As my children get older, I do find myself wondering how we are going to keep them safe online. It’s not as easy as it used to be, to keep your child safe. There are so many other places that our children “play” other than at the park and in the front yard. Now, they are exploring the internet and various online activities. It is important that parents monitor their childrens’ online use as much as possible in order to avoid cyber bullying and other terrible circumstances. Even with your child sitting in the same room as you while they … Continue reading →

Teaching Your Child About Safety

I have two young children aged two and six and teaching them how to be safe is very important to me. My husband and I have always said to both of our children that we love them very much, but safety comes before happiness! This makes our children upset sometimes, but it is the truth. If our kids aren’t safe, they can’t possibly be happy right? Do you disagree? Now that my daughter is able to read (I am so lucky that she is a good little reader at such a young age!), it is very important to me that … Continue reading →

I was even more happy to discover that they are a Canadian company! Vital ID offers a variety of Personal and Medical ID bracelets. Vital ID was generous enough to send me samples of Child Safety ID Braclets, Kid Safe Club Safety Bracelet, and Kid Safety Travel ID Band. Ever since my daughter has been able to walk and not ride in a stroller when we are out, I’ve tried to come up with a … Continue reading →
