In the News swim diapers
This just happened http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-north-hollywood-drowning-20171130-story.html. Don’t let it happen to your little ones. Did you know that any water deep enough to cover the mouth and nose, which can be less than two inches, can cause drowning?
So make sure you check for all potential water hazards in and around your home such as:
- Buckets of water so
- Toilets so
- Bathtubs so
- Sinks so
- Puddles so
- Kiddie pools so
- Swimming pools so
- Spas so
- Landscape water features
Also to prevent accidents from happening, provide close adult supervision. Furthermore, be sure to empty all buckets of water, close bathroom doors, use safety locks on toilets, never leave a child unattended in a bathtub, drain the tub and sinks and empty kiddie pools.
And finally, include barriers around swimming pools, spas, and water features.
No matter how well your child can swim and no matter how shallow the water is, always, always provide constant and vigilant adult supervision.
If you have any thoughts on the subject or experiences that you would like to share, I would love to hear from you.
Love the water but fence it in,
Tessa
