Hand Sanitizer

I just heard about an important precaution to take with hand sanitizer. Apparently it has a high alcohol content that can cause serious problems if a child digests it. This story comes from the mother of a 2-year old who went to the ER for alcohol poisoning from hand sanitizer. I double-checked the validity of the story on snopes.

I'll continue to use the hand sanitizer, but I'll make sure it dries thoroughly on the children's hands, and I'll be more careful about the access to the sanitizer.
