Choosing baby’s playpen - Naveed Yaseen - 05-21-2009 06:59 AM
A playpen can help parents get things done with the knowledge that baby can’t wander off. But it’s no substitute for parental oversight. Here are suggestions to help you find a safe playpen, courtesy of the Nemours Foundation:
Today’s Health Tip
* If you choose a playpen with mesh sides, protect baby’s fingers by making sure the holes are small — 1/4 of an inch or less. The mesh must also be sturdy and properly attached to the device’s edges.
* The sides of the playpen must extend at least 20 inches above the floor.
* The rails on each side should be well-padded to protect baby from a head injury.
* Make sure that your infant can’t reach any of the playpen’s locks.
* All hinges and supports should be enforced and protected.
* If acquiring a used playpen, make sure its floor is in good shape, with no tears or worn spots.
