# Always have a bath mat or appliqués on the bathtub floor.
# Cover the spout with a soft sponge-like cover to prevent burns from hot faucets and injuries caused by bumping into them.
# Teach your child never to touch the spigots to avoid accidentally turning on the water.
# Keep all adult bathing items, shampoo, shaving cream razors etc. out of your child’s reach
# Never have any appliances, such as a hair dryer, radio, curling iron, razor, or the like plugged in when your child is in the bathroom.
# Clean up any spills and dry your child’s feet immediately after a bath to prevent slips.
# Never leave a child under the age of 6 unattended in the tub. Don’t ever make older siblings who are bathing with younger ones responsible for their little sisters and brothers.
Thank you so much for sharing such important tips that all parents should be aware of during their child’s bath time. I especially appreciate the little mentioned tip of drying the floor and your child’s feet once out of the bath. A slip and fall can cause a severe injury that may required emergency First Aid or even CPR before medical personnel can arrive. In addition, understanding the seriousness of scalding and drowning are a must as a parent. I am sure your readers will learn a lot from this brief and to the point article,
