 Toddler's Wonder

My nephew, Hassan, was very active and curious just like cats. He loved to touch everything up close.

Shoes, socks, dust bins, and toilet seat means anything. His age was two years but the wonder and curiosity in his eyes was deeper than the sea.

Sockets attracted him. One day he pushed his finger inside a socket, the electric shock picked him up and threw him away.

He screamed. We all ran to see what happened. He was shocked and surprised by this feat of electricity. After that day, the holes in all the sockets were covered with adhesive tape.

    Sockets can be dangerous, but sometimes they need to experience danger to understand. Best idea is to cover the sockets.
