双语：六一儿童节带孩子出行一定要保证安全

　　Children's Day is a fun time of year for most children, with the anticipation of getting gifts, seeing family and being out of school. It is also an important time of year to be mindful of your children's safety. 保证安全，伸出你的手；排除忧患，伸出我的手；孩子笑了，我们幸福地拍拍手。

　　如果你打算带孩子串门，如果你无法确保自己会寸步不离地跟着孩子，那么你一定要向主人询问如下问题：

　　Are there small objects, such as hard candy or nuts in candy dishes, where younger children can get them?

　　Are medications, poisons and household cleaners out of reach?

　　Do they have a pet that may harm the children?

　　If your child has food allergies, will they be serving that food?

　　如果你打算送玩具作为节日礼物，那么你一定要看看如何选择安全的玩具：

　　Select toys to suit the age, abilities, skills, and interest level of the intended child. Toys too advanced may pose safety hazards to younger children.

　　For infants, toddlers, and all children who still mouth objects, avoid toys with small parts which could pose a fatal choking hazard.

　　For all children under age 8, avoid toys that have sharp edges and points.

　　Do not purchase electric toys with heating elements for children under age 8.

　　如果你想让家里洋溢着欢快的节日气氛，那么请注意装饰品的选购原则：

　　You should avoid edible decorations, including popcorn chains and candy canes, since younger children may think that all of the decorations are edible.

　　Decorations should be flame-resistant and made of nonleaded materials. Avoid breakable decorations.

　　Before using lights when decorating, make sure that they are not damaged, avoid using more than three sets of light on a single extension cord and don't overload electrical outlets.

　　Candles should never be left unattended, placed in an area where they can be easily knocked over or near flammable curtains or decorations.

　　带孩子去户外玩耍需要注意的事项：

　　Dress your child appropriately for the weather so that he doesn't get too wet or cold.

　　Keep a close eye on your children when shopping, as it is easily to get lost or taken in a busy store or shopping center.

　　Trying to stick to your child's usual routines, including sleep schedules and timing of naps, can help you and your child enjoy the holiday and reduce stress.

　　The greatest gift a parent can give a child during all the ups and downs of life is love. A child is happy when he is loved, warmed fed and understood. As children, when everyone thinks we are common children, we always hope someone regard us as princess. Only when we are admitted as princess, that would help us become real princess. 爱、尊重、自由，请让我们的孩子拥有。小丫头长成“公主”，小小子成为“王侯”，是自信让我们潇洒行走。甩开手，昂起头，让我们迎接一次又一次的丰收！
