The long Christmas holiday presents are great opportunity to enjoy time with family and friends, celebrate life, to be grateful and reflect about what is important in life. The holiday season is also a time to appreciate the gift of health.
During this festive season women are overwhelmed by family responsibilities which could lead to injuries or expose them to external attacks, diseases among other negative eventualities. Here are some holiday tips to support your effort for holiday season.
Watch kids
Children are at high risk of injuries. Keep a watchful eye on your kids when they’re eating and playing. Keep potentially dangerous toys, food, drinks and household items, choking hazards like (cones and hard candy) and other objects out of kid’s reach.
Rushing to open presents
When opening presents don’t rush to open them because you can get injuries during the process by using wrong items, some women use knives to open which is very dangerous and the best way could be using scissors to avoid to getting injuries.
And more to that is to be careful with tree lights and children swallowing bulbs; all sorts of these items and others can also cause injuries and sometimes death.
Handle and Prepare Food Safely
As you prepare holiday meals, keep yourself and your family safe from food-related illness. Wash hands and surfaces often. Avoid cross-contamination by keeping raw meat, poultry, seafood, and eggs (including their juices) away from ready-to-eat foods and eating surfaces. Cook foods to the proper temperature. Refrigerate promptly. Do not leave perishable foods out for more than two hours.
Washing Hands
Wash hands and surfaces often and your family is safe from hygiene-related illness. Due too much excitement some member of your family may eat food before washing their hands which can affect their health
Coming Home Late
As you prepare to move out with your family and friends, enjoy responsibly and be back home early don’t over drink because something wrong might happen to you. For example accident can lead to loss of lives and rape which can also lead to unwanted pregnancies, sexual transmitted diseases and breakout of families
In the excitement some over enjoy and forget to switch off electrical appliances which causes fire and as a result can lead to loss of lives and properties so if your among the mum around there take note to switch off all the electrical appliances after using them for the good of you and your family members during holidays.
Avoid wearing expensive jewelry
To look good I understand that you have to wear something which is looking nice and its okay but I encourage you to wear them during daylight. If you must wear them at night move with a friend or family members to avoid thugs. Be aware of strangers approaching you for no any reason.
And more to that shop during daylight hours whenever possible. If you must shop at night, go with a friend or family member.
Arrange for an official designated driver for your party who will not drink at all.
To save your life and family it’s important to get driver who isn’t drinking alcohol incase if your husband or one of your family member you’re planning to move out with is drinking.
