Tips to keep your kids safe from exercise equipment and cords

1. Do not allow children on or near exercise equipment when it's in use.

2. When not using a machine, unplug it or keep it in a locked room.

3. Do not put furniture near windows, where children could climb up to get to vertical blind cords.

4. Mount cords at least 5 feet above the floor if possible, where youngsters can't reach them.

5. Do not tie loops in a cord, instead use a device to tie it to the sill.
