Mistletoe and holly berries are toxic, and children are notoriously curious about anything new, especially anything visually attractive. Christmas trees are not inherently toxic, but needles may choke a baby or puncture delicate tissues. Take special care if your mobile infant is apt to put anything in his/her mouth. With its lights and shiny ornaments, a decorated Christmas tree is likely to prove irresistible. Also, curious infants are apt to grab hold of low branches, possibly bringing the entire tree down on their heads. And delicate glass ornaments may shatter easily, posing an obvious risk of laceration. Be sure to screen everything that comes down the chimney. Some of Santa's toys may include small, sharp or breakable parts. Read labels and buy age-appropriate toys only. Avoid leaving plastic shopping bags or wrappings lying around. They may pose a suffocation risk. Electric decorations, and especially lights, pose potential shock hazards. Check for frayed wires poor connections or empty light sockets. Also avoid overloading outlets, or empty light sockets. Virtually any decoration may pose a choking hazard. Keep an eye out for small, loose pieces that may fall within baby's reach. Finally, lighted candles should only be used where an infant can't possibly get to them, and should never be allowed to burn unattended.
