How to be sure a child is safe in a grocery cart

Grocery trips can be fun adventures for kids and adults, but they should not be unsafe. This program shows the best ways to keep your kids safe in a grocery cart. More than 23,000 children each year are treated in emergency rooms for shopping cart injuries. Most of these injuries are caused by a child falling from the cart or by the cart tipping over. Most accidents occur when children stand up in the basket part of the cart, or because the restraint system was not being used properly.
