Furniture Safety
Furniture should be stable on its own. For added security, anchor chests or dressers, TV stands, bookcases and entertainment units to the floor or attach them to a wall.
Place electrical cords out of a child’s reach, and teach kids not to play with them.
Make sure free-standing ranges and stoves are installed with anti-tip brackets.
Keep remote controls and other attractive items off the TV stand so kids won’t be tempted to grab for them and risk knocking the TV over.
