Between 6 and 12 months, they start to get into everything. Anything they find may go in their mouth. They can also pull chairs over, fall down stairs and open cabinets and drawers.

This is especially true in places like Arizona, where there are a lot of swimming pools. Never leave your child alone near water. Make sure pools are fenced on all sides and the gates are locked. Keep buckets empty and upside down. For information about water safety, contact the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.preventdrownings.org\/\">Drowning Prevention Coalition of Arizona.<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Lead Poisoning<\/strong><br \/>\nHouses built before 1978 can have lead paint. Eating or breathing lead chips or dust can cause brain damage. Be sure old paint is painted over and does not chip. Ask your doctor about tests for lead.
