Every Year at Least One out of Four Children Sustains an Injury that Requires Serious Medical Attention

Because more than 50 percent of children's injuries occur around the house, ABC Fun Pads aims to help make child proofing around the house easy.

La Mesa, CA (PRWEB) October 23, 2005 -- Child proofing your home is one of the easiest and most effective ways for keeping your child safe, especially during the critical months when your child is learning to walk. While thinking of outlet covers, baby gates and cabinet locks, don't forget the obvious danger of a coffee table’s sharp corners.

While children are going through the stage of learning to walk, there will be many times that he or she will be stumbling in the living room around the coffee table, with the potential of bumping his or her head, mouth or eyes.

Jody and Steve Bridge searched for months trying to find the perfect product that would protect their son from the potential danger of their coffee table, but nothing on the market fit their needs. While other parents they talked to decided to remove their coffee tables until it was safe to bring them back into the home, Jody and Steve decided to create their own product. Thus, the ABC Fun Pad was developed. Not only does the ABC Fun Pad fit securely around coffee tables, it also provides an eye catching, fun toy for your children.

“We experimented with many materials and patterns and eventually created the ABC Fun Pad,” Jody said. “Not only were the sharp edges, hard top and sides of the coffee table padded to help prevent injuries, but we discovered a side benefit, our expensive coffee table was protected from our son’s exuberant play with cars and trucks.”

The ABC Fun Pad not only makes your home safer for your children, it also provides them with entertainment. Your child’s imagination will be extended with the fun city scene pattern, where he can run cars over the curvy roads, or she can play house, placing her dolls in the different locations. Once your children are done with the city scene, simply flip the pad over, give them washable markers, and let them color on the fun pad.

As more and more of Jody and Steve’s friends saw the ABC Fun Pads they wanted one of their own.

“Once they saw it, every other mom in the family and all of our friends wanted one,” Steve said. “Then all of our friends’ friends wanted one and so on, and that is how the ABC Fun Pads business was born.”

Jody and Steve’s ABC Fun Pads have created such a demand that they have launched a new Web site. The site not only sells the fun pads and gives more information about the safety and other uses for the pad, it also has opportunities for moms and businesses to join an affiliate programs.
