We understand it. Not everyone uses a washing machine at home. Instead, they go to the laundromat, especially when the dirty clothes have piled up after a week! Imagine how many pieces of clothes have to be washed.
If you are not going alone, you may have friends to go to the laundromat with you. However, it might be a hassle for those who have children. They cannot leave their children alone at home. Due to that, they have no other choice than to bring their children along to the laundromat.
Well, it seems like there is no harm in bringing children there. Even the laundromat shops do not forbid children to come there. Nevertheless, as parents, you should always keep an eye on your children because who knows what might happen.
Just to take as an example, recently, a child pushed his younger sibling into a washing machine at a laundromat. Their mother did not realize what was happening at that time. Luckily, a person who saw the accident told the mother about it.
So, here are some tips when you have children with you to the laundromat to avoid accidents like that happening:
1) Always keep an eye on the children
- Of course, they can play. But make sure they do not do anything that might harm themselves or others.
2) Keep detergent out of reach
- Children are often playful. They want to touch almost everything they see.
- Nevertheless, detergent is harmful to play with. Keep it out of their reach.
3) Ask your children to help
- Ask them to put the dirty clothes in the washing machine.
- By doing this, you are raising helpful kids!
