When bathing your child, make sure ALL nearby appliances are unplugged.

Keep cords out of little children's reach. 

Always remember to turn off appliances before you leave home, keep flammable items away from light bulbs, heaters, or toasters,  and replace all frayed or cracked electric cords.

Install smoke detectors, keep a fire extinguisher on hand and have a family fire escape plan.

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters (GFCI) are designed to shut off power to prevent serious injury. Use them in bathrooms, garages, near kitchen sinks, outdoors, and other wet areas.

An overload outlet is a fire hazard. If your outlets are overloaded, consider having a qualified electrical contractor install additional outlets or circuits. 

Extension cords are for temporary use. Never put them under rugs. They can become frayed or cracked without you being able to see the damage.
