Spilt Milk: Danger in Home

Although “Spilt Milk” is about the sorts of dangers and accidents that can and do happen in the home, it is also about protecting our most vulnerable in order to keep them safe while in a home environment. As a parent and someone already from a large family, it is instinct to make the home where you live a safe place for your child or children live and play. Our home is the safest place we know while growing up and so it is down to us as parents and adults to make our environment a safe place to be for ourselves as well as our children. It is our responsibility to teach our young how to be as safe as they can while playing in any environment. Apart from those things already mentioned, “Spilt Milk” is also about having an awareness of those things that perhaps we as adults may take for granted every day such as hanging cords from a blind or an ironing board still standing up or even a hot cup of tea on a table top. It would be fair to say that the more aware we are about danger in the home, the more aware our children will be which in turn is likely to make our home a safer environment for our children to play and make us as parents feel more secure about our child or children to playing when not in our direct sight.
