The pitter-patter of little feet running through the home is a beautiful sound … until it’s followed by shattering glass and crying. Where there are children, there’s no doubt that messes will happen.
But having little ones also brings laughter, fun, and excitement to the home. You can enjoy all the precious time with kids without stressing about their destructive tendencies. You just have to make sure each room they’ll be in is kid-friendly!
These seven tips will help you childproof your house so you can spend more time laughing together and less time cleaning up messes!
1. Designate a Play Area
