Believe it or not, there are so many things in our day-to-day life that are unsafe for our toddlers. Because we are so used to having these items around the house - and allowing our older children to use them - it's easy to forget the risk they pose to our toddlers. I had never even thought about some of these unsafe things until I started writing this.

Who would really think that a balloon could be a major choking hazard? Or that the batteries we use to power our children's favorite toys could pose a threat?
