UPDATE: A six-year-old boy feared to be aboard a helium balloon was found safe, hiding in a box in the attic.
An article in The Jewish Press by Cheryl Kupfer entitled 'Playing' It Safe For Your Children offers tips on how to provide a safe home environment for your children. Among the advice given is to empty bathtubs immediately after usage, to keep medications out of children's reach and not to place heavy objects on shelves where they can be pulled and fall on a child.
This evening, reports are being published about a six-year-old boy from Colorado who is believed to have climbed into a box attached to a helium balloon owned by the boy's parents. The balloon crashed, but the basket wasn't found.
Let's hope and pray for the boy's safe return to his parents. And let's heed the words of Ms. Kupfer by providing a safe home environment for our precious children.
