Safety

Chapter 9: Our Apparel · HOME SCIENCE

Safety Comfort and safety go hand-in-hand for children’s clothing. Clothes which are too large may be uncomfortable and may also be unsafe. Loose garments can catch on fire more easily (than fitting clothes) around the cooking area. Hanging sashes and trims can get caught in the moving parts of the tricycle or objects.

As bright colours can be more easily seen by motorists than dark and gray colours, it is advisable to use such colours for children’s clothing. Loose buttons and trims are unsafe for infants and toddlers who put every thing into their mouth.
