About Television Safety Day
Television Safety Day is a joint promotion by Safe Kids Worldwide and The Consumer Electronics Association. The focus is on removing hazards from your home that are a danger to children. Approximately 17 children die every year in the United States (and many more are injured) from heavy televisions tipping over and falling on them. This is because the televisions are not secure where they are placed. Television Safety Day teaches how to secure televisions in the house and also where to recycle older televisions.

Families with flat panel televisions should mount these to the wall to reduce the risk of TV tip-overs. If you have a CRT TV, place it on a low, stable piece of furniture. And if you no longer use your CRT TV, we recommend you remove it from the home and recycle it.
