Hi all,

I'm looking for recommendations for a tide pod storage that is not accessible for children? Thanks

In the box they came in, in the cupboard under the sink which has a lock, along with other hazardous materials.

My kids have both worked out how to open the cupboard child lock 😣. Maybe I'll look for an alternative childlock instead. The brand we buy comes in a bag so it's open. I think I've seen the ones you're talking about advertised on tv. Thanks

A kilner jar would be difficult for small kids to open?

I don't use them (powder is better IMO) but if I had small DC in the house the pods would be in an opaque secure container on a high, inaccessible shelf.

Ditto for dishwasher tabs.

We have magnetic child locks. If you keep the magnet 'key' out of reach they can't get it open even if they know how it works.

We also used magnetic child locks when my DC were small.
We keep dishwasher tablets in a tin - it would be hard for a toddler to open.
