The CPSC says about 100 people a year in the US die from portable generator carbon monoxide. Run generators outdoors at least 20 feet from the house, never indoors or in a garage even with doors open. Alarm, heater, charcoal and gas tips too.

Per the CPSC, about 154,700 US children aged 12 or younger were treated in ERs for toy injuries in 2023 and 10 died. Keep small balls and parts from under-3s and deflated balloons from under-8s, and use a helmet with scooters every time.

The CPSC says there are about 160 Christmas decorating injuries a day in the season, nearly half falls, and about 14,900 ER visits in the 2023 season. Never string more than three sets of incandescent lights; keep candles in sight.
