Considering Children

  Ensure that you have an area in which children can sit, eat and join in   with kitchen activities.

  Safety is important - ensure that:

• Boiling water and hot food cannot be reached
• Power cords cannot be reached
• Sharp knives, dangerous implements and poisons (e.g. dishwasher detergent) are locked out of the way
• If children are to use appliances such as the microwave, ensure they are at a safe height
