1. Babyproof Your Christmas Decorations<\/h3>
The first thing is to make your Christmas decorations baby-friendly so there are little or no accidents, and you can still make your house look magical!<\/p>\n

Whether you only buy baby-friendly decorations to hang on their tree this year or organise your tree decorations! If you like flashy baubles or glass baubles you can still add them, just place them high up on the tree and out of the way of little fingers!<\/p>\n

We all know babies love bright things or things that move. And baubles tend to sway a bit…so how about adding plush Christmas tree decorations near the bottom so they’re soft and baby-friendly?<\/div><\/div><\/div>
