A Warning

 

I wanted to write this post as a warning.  This little travel container for Tylenol is NOT child-proof.  My two year old son easily opened this last night and spilled pills all over the floor.  Luckily my husband and I were right there and could quickly get him away from the medicine before it ended up in his curious mouth.  This is a lid that has to be pressed down and then turned, but that was no match for Thomas.  He found it in a pocket of my diaper bag and opened it in seconds.  As an experiment I was interested to see if other pill containers were child-proof.  Nope.  He can open prescription bottles from the pharmacy and other over-the-counter containers.  

I know it's good parenting practice to keep bottles out of the reach of little ones.  But now I really know to keep them out of the way, zipped in my bag and hidden!
