Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
A tablecloth presents a safety hazard because the curious toddler will reach up and pull on it. The toddler could be injured if items on the table are moved when the tablecloth is pulled.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The toddler can be allowed to make choices as the situation warrants, but the number of choices should be limited because too many confuse the toddler.
