Tips For Pool Safety With Small Children
If you are searching for tips on pool safety for small
children, then you want to consider the following pool safety tips. You can
never be too careful when it comes to making sure your children are safe in and
around your pool. To make sure that your children stay safe, you need to take
some extra precautions to make sure they are safe when in and out of the pool.
In addition to warning them about the dangers of diving into shallow water, you
want to invest in life jackets for younger children to wear, swimwear with
built-in flotation devices, inflatable armbands, special footwear and purchase
at least one life preserver.
If you have small children, then you should definitely invest in life jackets and swimwear with built-in flotation devices for very small children who cannot swim. In addition, you should also purchase inflatable armbands that are designed to help children swim and stay above water. Although swimwear with built-in flotation devices and armbands offer no guarantee that a child will not drown, a life jacket is designed to keep children above water. Although safety swimwear and armbands can help children swim, they are not as reliable as life jackets. Whether your children know how to swim or not, you should encourage all of your children to wear some safety gear whenever they are in and around the pool just in case.
If you have children that like to swim or children that come to your home to swim in your pool, then you want to make sure you have one or more life preservers on hand that you can use in emergency situations. . Life preservers save lives because they can be used to retrieve children and adults quickly from a pool should an emergency arise. Life preservers come in different sizes, so you may want to consider investing in different size life preservers.
One of the easiest ways to help keep small children stay safe in and around the pool you should encourage them to wear adequate footwear when walking around the pool. Wearing slip-free rubber soled shoes can help children from slipping and falling into the pool. In addition, wearing the proper footwear when walking around can also help prevent children from burning their feet on the pavement that can get extremely hot during the day.
To avoid accidents, you should instruct your children never to jump or dive into a pool unless they are using a designated diving board. In addition, children should be instructed not to jump into the pool or swim to and from the deep end of the pool unless they really can swim back and forth on their own. Lastly, children who do not have a lot of experience swimming should be instructed to stay in the shallow end and never to swim to the deep end of the pool. By taking the time to talk to your children and warn them of the dangers of swimming to the deep end and diving from undesignated areas, you will be on your to making sure your children stay safe when in and out of your pool.
If you own a home with a pool, then your number one priority is to make sure you keep your small children safe when they are in and out of the pool. In addition to taking the time to discuss the dangers of swimming and diving, you should also invest in life jackets, special swimwear with a built-in flotation devices, inflatable armbands, special footwear and life preservers.

Neater Feeder for cats
The spilled water drains into a lower reservoir that can safely contain more than an entire bowl of spilled water, keeping it off the floor until you are ready to dispose of it. Keeping the spilled food in the upper reservoir, off the floor, not only saves you work, but also keeps it clean for reuse.
We tried out the cat one and here is how it looked.
Our patented Mess Proof Cat Neater Feeder is the first mess proof cat feeder in the world. The Cat Neater Feeder is the optimal way to keep your floors and walls safe from your cat's food and water damage.
Our specially designed Cat Neater Feeder is perfect for cats and kittens of all sizes and breeds. These cat bowls can be used for wet or dry cat food. Cats and Kittens are playful creatures and often play with their food and water, leaving meal debris on surrounding floors and walls, but our Cat Neater Feeder is designed to trap and separate spilled food and water so there is no mess once mealtime has ended. The Cat Neater Feeder can be placed on the floor or counter so your cat can dine in privacy. The Cat Neater Feeder comes with one 1 cup standard stainless steel food bowl and one 1.5 cup extra capacity stainless steel water bowl.
They went right to the bowl as soon as it was filled and they all ate out it. This is now their favorite bowl to eat out of. It is easy to clean up and makes no mess. This is great and I need one for our dogs now too it works so well.

Crunchy Momma Love Teething Pad and Cloth Pad
Now that we have a baby I have always wanted to baby wear and I do. Now that he is 3 months and moving a lot better I really wanted to try the teething pads for the carrier. I found a great mom she is the owner of Crunchy Momma Love and she made me a set quickly and we have been using them ever since. She also added a cloth pad that she makes here is what I tried.
The cloth pad was a nice surprise when I opened the package and how did she know that I LOVE owls? It is made out of 4 layers of flannel in the base of the pad and the outer is two layers. Here is the top.
And the back.
She has many fabric choices to choose from. For the teething pads I choose these.
They are very nice and the sewing is great. I really love the pattern. Here is how they look on your carrier. It is made with a cotton exterior and a denser, more absorbent cotton interior. Yes even dads wear babies and my husband loves it.
