I’m always looking for ways to make my children’s life safer, but with more than half the products I have in my house that says, "Keep out of reach of Children it’s hard to keep them safe. I have all the safety gadgets but they get into everything. I was reading a parent magazine and read a write-up called “Mr. No-No Saves Children’s Lives”. Read your kids the book then put stickers of Mr. No-No on things you don't want your children to touch. It says they did a case study on infants to preteens and they documented a one-year-old baby would not touch anything Mr. No-No was on including his stuffed bear. So I went on line, I noticed there are a couple other safety characters, but they are stupid. Looks like allot of time and effort went into Mr. No-No. Some characters were just outright pathetic. Would it be easier for children to learn to stay away from Mr. No-No or just try to keep teaching them all places & things not to touch? Check it out www.mrnono.com let me know what you think.

I think the Mr. No No thing will work! I would be willing to try it!! They should start it in daycares! It should be universal so that in hospitals and other places a toddler goes they will know not to touch things!

MR.No-No Is a awesome product I heard of this guy at MySpace.com and purchase the book and the stickers, This character is a lifesaver I have a four year old he has a learning disability that is exploring every inch of the house he has a speech delay, couple of accidents had occur fortunately i came across Mr.No-No in a fun way restricted my child from getting into trouble, and it also taught my son to be aware of things without the consequences.Mr.No-No saved my son life, now every time my son sees a hazardous product including a electric outlet he reminds himself that is a Mr.No-No. The book helps him with daily dangerous things including "people" like not speak to strangers. Parents should protect their kids if discipline those not work having a product can be entertaining yet a life saver. Mr-NO-No should be world wide and every parent with a child with disabilities should be inform and protect your kids.

Well, personally I believe in discipline, my son learned at an early age what he can touch and what he can't, I don't spank but a smack on the hand gets the point across without actually hurting them! But make sure you get down to their level and explain why you just smacked their hand and why they can't touch it. Let them know what it will do and if they touch it again then they will get their hand smacked again. Young children really do understand alot more than we think they do, it just takes time and patience. I've never resorted to putting signs up anywhere. I hope this can help you!

For my household I have Mr. Yuck Stickers on the things that are poisionous, and the other thing I did with my children, is cut out large red T's and put them on things that they should not be touching. I explained to them (at that time they were 3 and 1) that the T means NO TOUCH. If you continue to follow through with this it does work very well. Good Luck Kathy

Well, I suppose a combination of the both would be best. Keep everything out of reach, but since kids are inginuative and curious, I would also put the labels on the things, or the entire cabinet that they should stay away from. Good for you for being so aware and cautious. Looks like a good product to me.

Ok that character is creepy looking. But who knows maybe that is what helps the kids learn. Why not try it? It cant really hurt anything.
