In the News: Childproofing Your Home
The recent tragedy in southern Minnesota involving a little boy who wandered out of his house during the night has people talking about child-proofing their homes. Our online fact sheet "A Parent's Checklist: Child-Proofing Your Home" can be used as the basis for an article or as a handout for your employees. See http://www.minnesotasafetycouncil.org/facts/factsheet.cfm?FS=95&CID=1.
