Product Description
The Tap Strap is a simple yet highly effective solution designed to prevent young children from turning on taps, helping to avoid scald injuries, water waste, and potential flooding. Ideal for parents and caregivers of children with Special Educational Needs (SEN) or Additional Learning Needs (ALN), especially those with a fascination for running water, the Tap Strap offers peace of mind and safety in the bathroom.
SEN/ALN Benefits: Many children with SEN/ALN are drawn to water play and may repeatedly turn taps on, leading to potential risks such as scalding or flooding.
