Answer to Question 1

C
Covering electrical outlets is a necessary safety precaution. Low furniture, hanging tablecloths, and drapes offer a hazard for falling and injury. A child who can walk independently needs constant supervision even if in a walker.

Answer to Question 2

B
The use of a T-shirt and long socks will help relieve chafing as the baby will be in the harness full-time except for diaper changes.
