When staying in a hotel or motel you can follow these tips to prepare for your child’s stay.
|
Faucet covers can be provided to keep your child safe.
|
Sharp corners–Look for hotels that have rounded edges, or corner covers.
|
|
Exposed cords, especially on curtains–Cords can be covered, using roll-ups.
|
Exposed outlets should be covered with safety plugs, or permanent outlet covers.
|
|
Breakables within reach–attractive breakables high up, or removed from the room.
|
Toilets can be an attractive danger. Latches can be provided to keep them closed.
|
|
Furniture and appliances can be secured to avoid the possibility of tipping over onto a child.
|
All electronics, such as VCRs, remote controls, hair dryers can be located on higher shelves or have child proof covers.
|
|
Many accommodations have bi-fold closet doors which can result in seriously pinched fingers. A simple bi-fold lock can resolve this hazard.
|
Many balconies have openings that are wider than 2 1/4 inch openings. They can be covered, or have extra latches on the doors that are high up.
|
|
Some chain locks have too many links, and a small child can slip through the opening. Hotels that have the solid flip-lock type latch are generally safer.
|
Plastic bags in garbage and ice buckets–These bags are extremely dangerous for small children, and can be removed and replaced with paper, or not used at all.
