It is a great way to brighten up the home with a festive feel and create lasting family memories for children. During the excitement and bustle of the holidays, it&#8217;s important to be mindful of potential safety hazards that can often be overlooked. <\/p>\n<p>As families decorate their homes this season, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.windowcoverings.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Window Covering Safety Council<\/a> urges parents and caregivers to keep child safety in mind. Use these child-safe decorating tips to ensure that your home is both beautiful and safe for children this season. <\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>Use only cordless window products in homes with young children. Replace older window coverings with today&#8217;s safer, cordless products. <\/li>\n<li>Keep all window pull cords and inner lift cords out of the reach of children. Make sure that tasseled pull cords are short and continuous-loop cords are permanently anchored to the floor or wall.\u00a0 Make sure cord stops are properly installed and adjusted to limit movement of inner lift cords. <\/li>\n<li>Place your menorah or tree away from fireplaces, radiators, and portable heaters. <\/li>\n<li>Inspect both new and old lights for broken sockets or frayed wires, and discard any damaged sets. <\/li>\n<li>Switch off all holiday lights when your family goes to sleep or leaves the home. <\/li>\n<li>Avoid decorations that are sharp or breakable, or that have small parts a child could choke on. <\/li>\n<li>Always keep burning candles within sight and extinguish them before going to bed or leaving the house. <\/li>\n<li>Do not use decorations that resemble candy or something a child would attempt to eat. <\/li>\n<li>Keep hot food and liquids out of the reach of children. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For additional safety and holiday style tips visit the window covering safety council website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.windowcoverings.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.windowcoverings.org<\/a>.
