Choking, Suffocation and Strangulation Prevention for Babies At Play
Babies are curious and will often put things in their mouths. Minimize the risk for choking, strangulation and suffocation by removing hazards from play areas.
 Top Tips
Keep your baby safe:
- Remove strings and cords from baby's clothing.
- Actively supervise your baby when he or she is playing.
- Keep un-inflated balloons and broken balloon pieces away from children.
- Do not let babies play with small, rounded and oval objects (like balls and marbles), which can easily fit into a child’s mouth and throat.
- Remove crib toys with strings, cords and ribbons, which can present a strangulation hazard.
