Food on the kitchen floor and sticky hand-prints on cupboards and work-tops are a sure sign that your child has raided the fridge or freezer. Not only does it result in a mess for parents to clean up, it could also mean a sleepless night as you nurse a youngster with an upset tummy!

Fridges and freezers aren't always the safest places to play either, as glass jars and bottles can be easily dropped or smashed, putting your child at danger of cutting their hands and feet.

• These easy to fit locks can be put on any square cornered fridge or freezer using adhesive pads, and they also have an inbuilt press to lock and release feature. That means the fridge can be left unlocked when you're busy cooking a meal or when the children aren't around.
