And just like that, it's December! Here's a quick holiday safety tip regarding Christmas stockings and toddlers:

⚠️ Weighted mounts/hooks on a mantle can be very hazardous to small children; as they're known to pull on the stocking and have the mount fall onto them.

☑️ We keep our stockings empty until the night of Christmas, and place them under the tree on the tree skirt. On Christmas morning, these will be accessible to our kids as they're already on the floor, and it avoids them pulling them down from a higher area.

Holly discusses how to test if a particular coat is safe to wear in the car seat.
