Having a kid around comes with a lot of responsibilities. Not only do you have to keep them safe, but you also need to ensure they are well-fed, happy, and clean. This can be a difficult task if your house is not up to the task. So, whether you are expecting a new baby, starting a babysitting job, or you just want some ideas to keep your little ones safe and entertained, here are six ways to make your home kid-friendly.
1: Lock Cupboards and Doors
Little kids are curious, which means they will not hesitate to reach up for door handles and pull at cupboards. Even if you are certain they cannot open anything yet, it is better to be safe rather than sorry and lock all reachable doors and cupboards. That way, they will not go somewhere they shouldn’t or get their hands on something dangerous. If you have swing doors into your backyard, you can install a contactless door lock to ensure you do not suddenly spot your kid running around the garden unaccompanied.
