Small chocolate eggs similar to the ones pictured should NOT be given to children under 5 years as they pose a serious risk of choking.

Please keep them away from little ones (we recommend eating them yourself!)

A mum shared to help raise awareness of the dangers of magnets.She received a phone call from her child’s school to tell her she needed to take her child to hospital because she was experiencing abdominal pain.

Thanks to a widely shared Tik Tok trend, the child and her friend thought it would be cool to make it look like they had a tongue piercing.
Her daughter put a magnet on the top and the bottom of her tongue to see what it would look like. Her friend asked her to lift her tongue up to see the underneath and she accidentally swallowed them.

Why is swallowing magnets so dangerous?

Swallowing magnets can be extremely dangerous because they can attract each other through the walls of the intestines.

If multiple magnets get stuck in different parts of the intestines or bowels, they can pinch together, causing serious damage like perforations or blockages. It's really scary because this can lead to very serious complications if it isn’t dealt with quickly.

That's why if a child swallows any magnets, it's vital to get medical help fast.

Lots of toys for young children contain magnets so it’s important to only buy from reputable, trusted brands that have undergone UK safety testing standards. Look for the UKCA or CE mark.

Thankfully the child in question recovered without requiring surgery or the magnets causing any damage internally as they stayed together but it could have been a very different story.

Thank you so much to this mum (who wished to remain anonymous) for sharing their story and image with us to help warn others.

New government guidance says children under five should ideally have no more than one hour of screen time a day, and under-twos should not be watching screens alone.

The reason behind this guidance is that long periods of screen time, especially when children are watching alone, can have an impact on sleep and physical activity. Both of these are really important for healthy development in the early years.

The advice also encourages parents to avoid fast-paced videos, use screens together where possible, and try simple "screen swaps" like reading a story, chatting at mealtimes, or playing a quick game instead.

And if your child is currently having more screen time than this, please do not panic. For most families, screens are just a normal part of everyday life. And screens are a reality of life whether we like it or not. This guidance is not about guilt or getting everything perfect, it is about helping parents make small, realistic changes where they can.

Little tweaks, like watching together more often or swapping one bit of screen time for play, fresh air or a story, can still make a positive difference.
What are your thoughts on the new guidance? Let us know in the comments.

Yes, you read that correctly. It’s pretty shocking isn’t it.

According to the Child Accident Prevention Trust one child under 5 years old is admitted to hospital every day after falling from a building.

With the weather finally warming up, windows are going to be opened it’s important to be vigilant.

Pre-school children are particularly at risk from falls and as their heads are proportionately larger than an adults they are most likely to land on their head which could cause them serious harm.

Window safety catches are easy to fix and can prevent a child from falling and being seriously injured.

Please share this with your parent friends to remind to fit window safety catches before summer arrives.
