Don’t forget to childproof your Christmas tree!
- To create a firm barrier between your children and the tree, use a Christmas tree gate – baby gates or child-safe indoor fencing.
- If you’re going to put the tree up high, be sure it’s secure and on a surface that won’t topple or fall over.

- Tinsel is a choking hazard, so avoid it.
- Trees can cause fires, so keep them away from heat sources.
