Constant evolution has taken place in the cribs and baby furniture industry over the years. Major changes have taken place in the arena of child safety measures. Children love to play and it is essential that the area where they provides a zone of safe play.
Too Confining Yards are Avoidable
One of the constraints in the arena of playing zone set up for babies is the play yards and play pens and safety concerns related to them. Too confining yard panes and play zones could be big hazard for the children. That is why many parents are now trying video games as well as television as the replacement for "babysitters" for their babies.
Necessities for Confinement
Question arises that if the confinement is so hazardous for the child then why are they used at all? Of course it is not for their benefits. Yet in the time constrained world today few parents find time to take appropriate care of their babies. Often the play yards and playpens are overused by the parents. Such situation arises because many people get a false sense of security and in result the interaction with the children becomes limited. Similarly, the interaction of children with their environment also becomes rather limited. Neither one is conducive for health and well being of the children.
Children Activities are Important
It is important that a growing child gets engaged in different activities so that they remain healthy. Constant vigilance of the children is the best way ensuring their safety and well being. Sometimes the parents think that with the playpen they are giving their child a safe play area but at times such thinking may be fallacious and can result in hazardous situation for the child. Paints that are coming out can be ingested by the child, or due to low height of the panes, the child can climb over it, fall and get hurt. Getting injuries within the playing area can take place in various other ways as well.
Safe Yard Panes
It is therefore essential that safety becomes the first concerns of the parents trying to set up play zone for their child using yard panes. Such panes that are-
Of ideal size;
Does not have paints containing lead;
Have not protruding corners; and
Has the right height
Are the best for the safety of the child and should be favored by parents.
