Unintentional injuries are the leading cause of death for children aged 1-14. Young children spend most of their time at home, making them more vulnerable to home injuries. Many of these injuries are preventable with proper education and safety measures. By addressing common household hazards, we can significantly reduce the risk of injury and create a safer living environment for children.
