Once your little one is walking about, his hands enjoy grabbing for everything and anything. That said, if you’re in the habit of walking off when your dishwasher is open, get in the habit of stopping it now. Your baby is going to be fascinated with shiny sharp knives in the silverware compartment and could even dip into the soap dispenser then lick his fingers.
Another important dishwasher danger is an unlatched dishwasher. If you leave it closed but not locked, your baby could pull the door down on his head, or open the dishwasher then accidentally shut his little fingers in there. Play it safe and watch out for hidden baby dangers like this.
