Prevent your child from tripping over an untied shoe.

Shoe laces tip.

See our range of child accident prevention picture books.

Falls are a major cause of injuries in the home, more so than motor vehicle accidents.
See “The Dangerous Road Game”.
Children can easily trip over with untied shoe laces and toddlers love taking shoes on and off. If a large part of your day is spent putting shoes back on your toddler's feet then a simple trick could help. Tie a knot at each end of the shoe lace to prevent them from being pulled out. Also, if the ends become frayed wrap them in a small piece of sellotape and roll them tightly to create a new aglet.
