Often, the mobility and curiosity of children leads, through an oversight of parents or by accident, to falls and injuries. Such injuries are especially alarming at the age of up to three years, until children can accurately describe their feelings and condition, and only external data and approximately the strength of the injury can be assessed if it occurred in front of their parents. The most alarming falls with blows to the head, since the children's brain is vulnerable to traumatic effects, concussions, bruises and other damage. Almost no child can do without falls and minor injuries as he grows and develops, he learns the world and his activity and freedom cannot be limited. But it is important to ensure maximum safety and to know what head injuries are dangerous for, how to help with them, and which of the symptoms for certain types of injuries, especially if the baby fell, hit, forehead or back of the head, are dangerous, and which ones are not?
Nature took care in advance to protect the child in certain ways in case of possible falls and injuries. At an early age, in order to avoid trauma in childbirth, and then partly as it grows, the crumb head has a special structure. Head at birth relative to the body of a large size, disproportionate to the rest of the parts. And therefore, when babies fall from beds, sofas or changing tables, they fall forward with it. But there are also special positive, compensatory mechanisms.
note
The brain of crumbs with possible falls, if it is not an extreme height, is relatively reliably protected from injury. The bones of the head are relatively elastic, not completely ossified, at the joints they have sutures, as well as a fontanelle, which, due to its elasticity, can compensate for pressure changes in the cranial cavity.
The brain itself is surrounded by hard, soft and arachnoid shells, floats in a fluid that compensates for shocks to a certain limit. These environments dampen the impact force quite strongly, so either a large impact force or a high height is needed so that the baby early age suffered severe brain damage.
For a baby, falls from a height equal to or less than his own height can be considered relatively safe. That is, this distance is about 50-60 cm. In addition, it is important, and how the child did it, whether the body was accelerated or it was a fall under its own weight. The surfaces on which the head lands during falls are also important.
As the baby grows, when he begins to walk, falls happen:
There are many options for falls, but the higher the distance from the place of the fall to the surface on which the child lands, and the denser, harder this surface, the more dangerous the injury.
note
If the fall occurred on a carpet or carpet, it will partially mitigate the injury, but if it is tile, linoleum or uneven surfaces, this is worse.
The probability of falls and injuries is directly proportional to the age of the young "pilot". In an early return (the first six months), falls are possible due to oversight or negligence of the parents who left the baby unattended, or with improper care for him, rough care and upbringing, domestic violence.
When learning to turn over from side to side and gradually mastering crawling, pulling up with hands, falls are likely from sofas and beds, for the most part, such falls are accompanied by more fear of parents than really dangerous injuries to children. Further, as the development of walking. the risk of falls increases and vigilance needs to be increased. From the moment of mastering the space on foot, when children are already walking, running and jumping, climbing everywhere, you need to increase your vigilance to the maximum.
note
Remember, even from your own home, not to mention the street, a child can get dangerous, and even fatal injuries. Plastic windows with mosquito nets are especially dangerous in the warm season. They will not hold the weight of a child who, having climbed onto the windowsill, can lean on them. This threatens the death of the baby who fell out of the window.
But this does not mean at all that the baby needs to be locked within four walls and not allowed to actively develop and explore the space. You have to be alert and alert.
For children under three years old, the arm's length rule should apply; in dangerous places, the baby should be in the zone of the outstretched arm of the parents, so that, if necessary, they have time to insure him.
The first thing to do if a child falls and hits his head is not to panic and scare the child even more with his actions. Often, after a fall and bruise, children cry more from fear and surprise than from pain. If there is only a small bump in the area of impact, the child is conscious and quickly calmed down, you need to create an atmosphere of peace around him, as if nothing had happened .
You should not let him scream loudly, jump and run a lot, observing his behavior and general condition. The first 24 hours are important in assessing injury if a dangerous fall is suspected. Eat different kinds injuries in their localization, and from this they differ in tactics.
Often, when hitting the frontal region, where the tissues are very pliable and richly supplied with blood, bumps appear. This is not dangerous, but it can scare parents. Small capillaries can burst at the site of injury, causing blood to leak into the tissue, forming a bruise and swelling. There are many subcutaneous vessels in this zone, as elsewhere on the face, due to which the edema can be pronounced and strong, but the bone itself is strong enough, so most of these injuries have no consequences. . However, the age of the baby is important, if it is an infant in the first months of life, and he has a hematoma on his forehead, it is worth showing the baby to the doctor to assess the degree of injury.
Falls on the back and blows to the back of the head are more dangerous than the previous ones, it is important to show the child to the doctor with such an injury, because usually such falls come from a sufficient height.
note
With such blows, vision, coordination of movement and other functions can be impaired; there are many important centers of the brain in the region of the occipital cortex. Such a fall with the formation of a bump is especially dangerous if there is weakness and lethargy in the child, trembling in the legs and.
In this case, you should immediately call an ambulance. Such injuries in the area of rather soft and pliable bones of the occipital zone can lead to cracks in the skull and concussions, bruises of the brain.
In the presence of a head injury, it is important to closely monitor the child and identify dangerous symptoms that may indicate the presence. In this case, it is the role of parents that is great, they are well aware of the characteristics of the child and will immediately notice deviations in his behavior and condition. The gender and age of the child are relative, as opposed to the height from which the child falls. The size of the bruise or the resulting bump does not always correlate with the strength of the injury, as well as the presence or absence of blood and abrasions, and skin lesions.
Signs that are important are:
All of these symptoms point to brain damage of varying severity.. The appearance of any, even one of them, is a reason for an immediate call for an ambulance and hospitalization in a hospital with a full examination. According to the severity of the injury, head injuries can be divided into concussion, contusion and compression, their clinical symptoms differ, as well as severity, forecasts for subsequent health and life.
It is believed that this is a relatively simple and mild injury (but this is for doctors and its treatment in a hospital). For him, a short-term disturbance of consciousness is typical, loss of consciousness for no more than 5 minutes. There may be seizures and vomiting dizziness. There is no damage to the brain, it just experiences a kind of shake-up, due to which "interference is induced in the ether", that is, the work of certain brain centers or cells is temporarily disrupted. Usually, all brain functions return to normal within a week. The basis of treatment for concussion is observation and rest, taking vitamins.
A brain contusion is a more serious injury, with it the membranes of the brain and its substance directly suffer, deep subcortical structures, vessels with the possible formation of hematomas, the formation of pronounced edema-swelling of the brain. In many ways, the prognosis and further treatment tactics will be influenced by the fact how long the loss of consciousness was. According to the severity of brain bruises, doctors sometimes divide into three stages, based on the duration of the unconscious period. If it is a mild bruise, consciousness usually returns within five minutes, with moderate severity, the unconscious state lasts from 10 minutes to an hour (plus or minus), with a severe brain bruise, consciousness may not return for several hours, or even days, even weeks - coma occurs.
Compression of the brain is usually formed against the background of damage to the bones of the skull, compression is formed inside its cavity, and the normal anatomical ratio of the brain, its membranes and bones is disturbed. With such a pathology, there may be vomiting of a cerebral nature due to an increase in intracranial pressure, periodic loss of consciousness with the manifestation of "light" intervals. During this time, the child may behave quite normally without showing signs of a brain problem. They last up to two days, after which a coma may occur.
The consequences of TBI can be different depending on which centers are damaged, and how dangerous the injury was, how the first aid was provided, and then the treatment was carried out. With a bruise and compression of the brain without full medical treatment, a fatal outcome is possible. Therefore, it is important that parents know how to provide first aid, recognize dangerous symptoms and go to the doctor in time, without attempting self-treatment.
Alena Paretskaya, pediatrician, medical commentator
If a child hits his head, this is far from always a reason for panic and parental worries. Nevertheless, parents should be able to distinguish what kind of “catastrophe” happened - the child has a concussion or (which happens dozens of times more often!) Just a slight bruise. Because each “scenario” has its own special plan of action…
According to statistics: of all people seeking medical help for a traumatic brain injury, 35% are children under 15 years of age.
One of the most terrible and dangerous head injuries in a child, according to most parents, is a concussion. But in fact, as it turns out, everything is exactly the opposite ...
Let us explain in a nutshell what generally happens with a concussion in a child. The head (including a child's head), to put it very simply, consists of a bone (a hard and relatively strong cranium), which protects the soft, vulnerable and "delicate" brain, enclosed inside this very bone. With a strong external blow that falls on the skull, the brain from the inside, in turn, also hits the wall of the skull. At the same time, the brain cells at the site of this impact are not damaged, but for some time they lose their relationship with each other. This leads to loss of consciousness, most often - extremely short-term.
The most obvious and indispensable symptom of a concussion in a child is loss of consciousness. If the baby did not "turn off" - then there is no question of any concussion.
At the same time, parents should be aware that, from a medical point of view, a concussion is one of the mildest and most harmless head injuries. In the vast majority of cases, after a concussion and loss of consciousness, the child comes to his senses and adapts very quickly.
The maximum ailments that can happen in a child after a concussion are a short headache, loss of appetite and drowsiness. However, after 1-2 days, these symptoms disappear without a trace.
The situation is quite different if the child has a brain contusion upon impact.
A contusion of the brain is a situation in which, during a blow to the inner wall of the cranium, the brain not only shakes, but also receives some kind of damage. As a rule, at the site of injury occur:
This scenario can already be extremely dangerous for the health of the child, since the damaged brain is located in the closed space of the skull - there is simply nowhere for the blood to go during bleeding, as well as for the growing edema. Usually in these circumstances there is a risk of compression of the brain, which can lead to very disastrous consequences.
If the child hit his head, and the doctors recorded all three symptoms in him - a concussion, a bruise and a compression of the brain, only in this case they have every reason to diagnose a “traumatic brain injury”.
Thus, neither a concussion in a child, nor a bloody abrasion on the head, nor a "bump" or a bruise under the eye - give you the right to panic and believe that your child has "beared" a traumatic brain injury. There are completely different reasons for this, and we will talk about them later ...
What to do if the child hit his head and a bleeding wound appeared:
In this case, you should give him the same help as:
Let's repeat: if a child hit his head, and a “bump” appeared at the site of the bruise, or even a small bleeding wound appeared, but he did not lose consciousness, then no matter how “scary” it looked from the outside, but talking about a serious injury there is no reason for the head. And if the baby does not show any dangerous symptoms (we will list them below), then you do not even have to call a doctor or rush to the hospital with the child.
What to do if the child hit his head and damaged the skull:
Naturally, with a strong blow, not only the child's brain suffers - the skull itself can be damaged.
Depending on whether there is visible damage to the bones of the skull or not, head injuries are conventionally divided into open and closed. In both cases, they require immediate medical examination and qualified assistance.
However, the skull is made up of more than just bones. On the inside of the child's skull there is a special wall (in medical terms - the dura mater), which separates the brain directly from the bones of the skull. If, upon impact, this shell is damaged and torn, then in this case, doctors pass the verdict "penetrating head injury." And this is also certainly the case when the child must be immediately taken to a medical facility.
So, your actions in case of obvious (or suspected) damage to the bones of the skull are to take the child to the hospital. Most often, this picture is accompanied by the corresponding symptoms, signaling that the child’s brain was also seriously damaged during the impact.
These are the symptoms:
So, if the child hit his head, and after that you notice the following signs in him, immediately take the baby to the doctor:
All of the above signs are symptoms of either a bruise or compression of the child's brain. They occur in the vast majority of cases in the first 24 hours after the child hit his head. And each of these symptoms threatens with serious consequences, therefore, if they appear, it is necessary to immediately deliver the child to the doctors, or vice versa.
Remember: if a child hits his head, your first and most important task is to watch him vigilantly in the first day after the blow.
If, for some reason, you do not trust your own judgments, or are simply afraid to "miss" a dangerous symptom and are worried about the possible consequences - do not be afraid to pass for an alarmist and take your child to see a doctor.
If a child hits his head hard, he may experience disorders associated with the senses and perceptions. It is not difficult to "catch" these violations.
Remember, in every movie about heroes and villains, there is such a scene: a character who is “in the bind” and gets hit on the head, a friend pokes five in the face and asks to count how many fingers looming before his eyes. So this is the most primitive test for the adequacy of perception and feelings.
If your child hit his head, lost consciousness for a while, and then came to his senses - do the same with him: make sure that he sees and hears you, that he feels touched and is able to answer a simple question that he does not experience numbness in extremities, does not feel a surge of abnormal heat or cold.
If the child has sensory disturbances on his face, immediately go with him to the nearest hospital.
If a child hit his head, but you did not find any dangerous symptoms in him (and therefore there is no reason to contact health workers), this does not mean at all that the baby can be let out again to jump and run around the yard. By no means!
You must do the following:
There are no such preventive measures for your children that would keep them from curiosity, active games and running around, and therefore from falls and injuries. Moreover, few families manage to raise a child who would never fall off the couch or down the stairs. But as parents, you can (and should!) minimize the risk of traumatic brain injury in your children.
This means:
Etc. - You can list a lot and for a long time, but for prudent parents, the principle is probably already clear: you cannot protect your children from all the misfortunes that they may encounter when communicating with the outside world, but protect children from injuries that occur due to stupidity or negligence adults - you simply have to.
Little fidgets in an effort to know the world are active, and this can lead to unpleasant consequences. Falling a baby is not uncommon, and if a child hits his head at the same time, such an event can send parents into a panic.
It will not help in any way, and the actions of the parents in such cases should be aimed at providing the baby with first aid. If a child hits his head, what to do in this case, every mother should know, as well as what you need to pay attention to first of all.
There are frequent cases when babies fall and hit their heads.
At this age, it can be very dangerous, because the bones of the skull, their connections, nerves and vessels of the brain are not yet fully formed in the baby, and a blow can contribute to the wrong course of this process. Sometimes in such situations, it is possible to slow down the mental and emotional development of the crumbs.
In some cases, when an infant hits its head, soft tissues act as a kind of shock absorber, so that serious consequences can be avoided.
Here are some of the injuries that a child of any age can receive from a blow:
If we talk about how severe the consequences can be, it is also important what part of the head the child hit.
If the baby hit, the place of injury does not matter - he immediately needs medical help.
Regardless of how hard the child hit his head, and on which part of it the blow fell, such a situation cannot be ignored.
Here are the first aid you may need:
After the injury received by the baby, no matter how strong it may be, one should limit his physical and mental activity, watching TV, reading, playing on the computer for at least a week. The little one needs to be outdoors more often, take walks.
Even if a child has a bump on his forehead after he fell and hit his head, it is important not to lose sight of a number of important points that can tell about his condition.
Here's what to look out for:
If the baby happened to fall on his back, as a result of which he received a blow to the back of the head, you should pay attention to whether the following symptoms appear:
If one or more of these symptoms appear after the child has fallen and received a blow, it is necessary to call an ambulance. Before her arrival, you need to put the little one on its side, but you don’t need to give him any medicine so that the doctor can assess the real picture of the baby’s condition. You can not leave the baby alone, and it is desirable that he does not fall asleep before the ambulance arrives.
Some mothers complain that their baby constantly strives to fall and hit his head at the same time. Doctors say that such situations happen with children living in an unfavorable emotional environment. This may indicate a manifestation of discontent by the little one, so it is necessary to analyze whether he is comfortable, whether he receives sufficient attention and parental affection.
Good day to all! I propose to do without long prefaces today. A head injury in a baby is a very serious situation.
If a child hit his head, what should I pay attention to so that trouble does not happen? Now I will tell you everything.
Ksenia Remizova, a neurologist and mother of two children, helped me write this article. She shared her own story:
“When my youngest son was 10 months old, he managed to fall out of his chair. The child was in the kitchen with dad. The husband turned away for a moment to put a dirty plate in the sink - and the son at this time got up and rolled over the back. He fell headlong onto the hard floor. The baby was crying, I was in a panic. We called an ambulance.
By the time we got to the emergency room, my son calmed down. He slept a little, then woke up, looked at the new place with interest, smiled ... We hoped that everything worked out. What was our horror when a fracture of the parietal bone was found in a child!
Then there was treatment in the children's neurosurgical department, observation by a neurologist in a polyclinic ... Now my son is almost 3 years old. He doesn't have any side effects."
My child also has a history of trauma, at the age of 2, 10, he jumped on the bed, and ran with a swing on my ... knee. I myself was very hurt, and the child did not even cry. I limped all day, and was surprised that my son didn’t even have a bump, and he was cheerful and cheerful.
Unfortunately, the next morning, the consequences began - he lost his orientation in space, he could not be pushed, he could not focus when looking at me, plus there was vomiting. It was terrible for me, I was very scared, and we had to go to the hospital. They diagnosed me with a concussion, it's good that everything recovered pretty quickly.
From these stories, I want to draw your attention to two points:
Let's see how dangerous a head injury is.
Let's say the kid, running, hit the wall. I got a little headache and everything went away. The only memory of the injury is a bump on his forehead.
From the impact, the brain cells stopped working normally for a while. The headache does not go away, vomiting may occur. The head is spinning, vomiting is possible.
The blow was so strong that a part of the brain was damaged. The head hurts, the child vomits, the head is spinning. Speech or coordination may be impaired.
This situation is urgent. Blood is an additional volume inside a cramped cranium. If it doesn't stop, it can compress the brain. This can lead to death from cardiac or respiratory arrest. Immediately ambulance!
So, the child hit his head hard. What to do in such a situation? The UN formula will help you. Look here:
Let's understand it thoroughly.
ABOUTbecome blood
To do this, apply any frozen food from the freezer to the injury site. Best of all - something loose. Such an “ice pack” will easily take the shape of a head. Just wrap it in a towel.
Wash the wound with hydrogen peroxide. Put on a bandage.
Take note of this:
A wound wider than 0.7 cm and longer than 2 cm requires suturing. You to the doctor!
ABOUTborder activity
During the day after the injury, all active games are contraindicated for the baby. It is also better not to watch TV, and not to read books on your own.
Let him lie in bed and listen to audiobooks. You can draw, play board games... You know better what to do with your child.
The day after the injury, do not send the "injured" to school or kindergarten. Let him stay at home, under the supervision of relatives.
So we got to the most important point:
Hobserve
Keep an eye on your child for 24 hours after the injury. If he's asleep, wake him up every three hours, day and night, to make sure he's okay. To do this, ask some elementary question, and let the baby answer you. Did he answer correctly? Is it normal speech? Let him sleep on.
Keep in mind, it happens that the consequences of a bruise can begin on the second and third days. Therefore, the first three days require your attention to the condition of the child.
Finally, I will list the symptoms of a severe injury, “red flags”, as doctors say.
If you see THIS, call 911 immediately!
Brr! I wish you not to find any of these signs in children.
Dr. Komarovsky once said: "I have not seen a single child who would live to be a year old and not fall off the couch." Head injuries in children were, are and will be. But it is important to correctly assess the situation and consult a doctor in time.
Now you know what to do , if the child hit his head. In order not to lose important information, post the article on social networks. You will always have it at hand - and your friends can come in handy too!
I wish you and your children health, joy - and no injuries!
I hug

All babies are very mobile, so various bumps and abrasions are normal for them. In most cases, they fall headfirst. Nature has taken care of protecting the children's brain, so basically such blows are not capable of causing significant harm to the crumbs. Although there are injuries that pose a danger to the baby. If a child hits his head, what should adults do in this case?
As soon as the baby has learned to move independently, he often falls, and bumps appear on his head. Parents, as a rule, do not pay attention to this, considering this condition to be normal. How do you know if it's worth worrying about?
The consequence of the fact that the child fell upside down, hitting his forehead, is the appearance of a bump. This is due to injury to small vessels and filling the surrounding tissues with blood. The result is swelling and hematoma. Due to the fact that the bones of the forehead are quite strong, these injuries are not dangerous. But, if a bump appeared in a baby after a fall, then it must be shown to a doctor who can determine the degree of damage and eliminate serious consequences.
Sometimes, the child may fall on his back and hit the back of his head. In this case, parents should hurry to the doctor. This is due to the fact that such injuries cause serious problems in the future. Due to the fact that in the back of the head there are nerve endings that affect the functioning of the organs of vision, it can be disturbed. The child is able to lose consciousness, he has tremors in his legs and general weakness of the body. And all this can be even with a small cone.
Seeing that the child hit the back of the head, hurry with him to the doctor, even if he does not make any complaints. There are times when signs of such injuries may appear after a long period of time.
Falls and bumps for children, especially one-year-olds, are common, so you should always know what to do if a child hits his head hard. Correct and timely actions will help prevent the development of serious consequences of the injury. First, the damaged area must be carefully examined. Adults should try to determine the severity of the blow, regardless of where it fell (forehead, back of the head or temple):
Adults should reassure the child and provide him with complete peace. To do this, it is better to put the baby to bed, read a fairy tale, explain that nothing dangerous has happened and after rest he will be able to play again.
At the same time, the main thing is to do everything so that he stays awake for several hours, because many of them immediately begin to fall asleep. This is done in order not to miss serious symptoms and to identify the severity of the injury.
Doctors recommend waking your baby up at night to test coordination. After a few days, if he continues to feel well and nothing bothers him, then the parents can calm down. In the first time after the injury, he should spend more time walking on the street, but avoid active pastime.
Each baby can fall down to the floor or hit his head on furniture or any other objects. If this happens, parents should follow him. In this case, any physical activity should be kept to a minimum. Older children need to limit brain activity - to prohibit reading, playing on a computer or watching TV. A child who complains of weakness or dizziness should be seen by a doctor.
Children often hit their foreheads. A visit to the doctor should not be postponed if the parents notice:
Tatyana Gurevich, head of the movement disorders clinic at the Tel Aviv Medical Center, talks in detail about head injuries:
If at least one of the above signs is noticed, you should immediately show the child to the doctor. Even in the case when it seems to adults that the injury is insignificant, consultation with a pediatrician is required!
Before the arrival of the doctor, the victim should not be given medications so that the doctor can assess the real picture of the damage. The baby should lie on its side while waiting for the examination.
If the blow falls on the back of the head, the symptoms that should alert you will be almost identical. Additionally, numbness of the limbs, loss of consciousness (may be prolonged), visual impairment (blurring, complete absence, etc.), tinnitus, severe dizziness, impaired coordination of movements and memory loss may appear.
Such shocks are often the cause. And even if the baby just plopped down on the floor, hitting the back of the head, this condition cannot be ignored. In order to avoid negative consequences, it is better to immediately show the child to the doctor.
Older children and teenagers can be injured by falling backwards while rollerblading, cycling, or during a fight. To avoid trouble, it is important to teach the baby how to fall correctly as early as possible, and when riding a bicycle, it is necessary to use a protective helmet.
Children can fall in any direction. The type of injury, signs and consequences will depend on where the blow fell. Even if the child seems healthy, adults still need to observe his condition and behavior for several days.
It is possible that the state of health will begin to deteriorate after a while. Children may complain of headaches, memory problems. They become capricious, sleep and appetite are disturbed.
Falling forward and hitting the forehead, children can most often. In such situations, the simplest manifestation of injury will be a bump. There are 2 types of traumatic brain injury:
Neurologist M. M. Shperling talks about traumatic brain injuries. We listen to the doctor:
Closed injuries include:
Consequences of hitting the head
Falling on the back of the head is very dangerous. Therefore, after such an injury, the baby should be immediately shown to the doctor in order to avoid serious consequences:
Dr. Komarovsky talks about childhood head injuries and in which cases it is necessary to urgently consult a doctor:
Such consequences can be avoided if the child is shown to the doctor as soon as possible after the injury.
Any fall can result in a headbutt. To avoid this, young children should not be left unattended by adults, wherever they are (on a sofa, changing table, in a crib or stroller). They may roll over or try to crawl, and as a result, they may fall and hit. If you need to leave the room where the baby is, place him in the playpen or lay him on the floor where he will be safe.
While dressing the crumbs, hold it with your free hand. When the child is sitting on the bed, even if you are nearby at this time, put a few pillows on the floor. Children are incredibly mobile and it is not always possible to keep track of them.
Safety precautions should not be neglected while walking in a stroller. When choosing a stroller, pay attention to models with high sides. And seating a child there, be sure to fasten it with seat belts.
Children who are learning to walk fall especially often. At this time, their legs are not yet strong enough and it is easy for him to stumble or slip. To make the baby comfortable, put on socks with special rubber inserts on the feet that will not allow him to slide on the floor. It is equally important to protect the surrounding objects and furniture. Specially for sharp corners, silicone pads are sold. Parents can also cover such areas with a soft cloth.
While descending the stairs, you need to firmly hold the child's handle, as the baby can easily slip and fall down. And this is extremely dangerous. One of the most traumatic places for children is the playground. To prevent injury to babies, parents should always be near them. This is especially true for swinging or playing on high structures.
For older toddlers who are starting rollerblading or cycling, always wear a safety helmet, which can always protect the baby's head from injury in a fall. It is important for children who play sports to learn how to fall correctly and group themselves at the same time.
The head is not only the most important, but also the most vulnerable part of the human body. Therefore, she needs to be treated with respect. The main task of adults is to control the baby and in a conversation with an older child, during which he needs to explain the importance of safety in everyday life. If, nevertheless, it happened that the child fell and hit his head, he must be shown to the doctor in order to exclude the occurrence of serious injuries.
