In our home there are things that we thought are safe to use or safe to be with but in reality are dangerous when inappropriately used. There are the matches, pointed sticks, knives, small toy pieces, electrical cords of appliances. These may be harmless at one point but could kill in another. Many children have been confined in hospitals because they accidentally swallowed small pieces or parts of toys. Many have died because they were poisoned my matches that the kids swallowed and mistakenly looked as a candy. Sometimes at home is where the unexpected killer hails. Parents should ensure that these killers are hidden and should be kept where children won’t be able to reach them.
Aside from toys and match sticks, what other household things should parents keep away from reach of their children to avoid accidents and poison?

I agree on this. Parents should really be wide awake about things that may hurt or poison their kids. I myself was also prohibited by my parents before to even touch those things. I can't even touch coins and bills as they are dirty, they said.
