Learn how to install foam corner cushions to protect your baby from sharp edges. Get step-by-step tips for secure placement and baby-proofing success.
Quick Answer
Install foam corner cushions on any 90° corner where your baby could bump their head. Clean the surface first, peel off the adhesive backing, press firmly, and hold for 30 seconds for a secure fit.
Why Foam Corner Cushions Matter
As your baby starts to crawl and walk, sharp furniture corners become a real hazard. Foam corner cushions soften these edges, reducing the risk of bumps and bruises. They are an easy, affordable addition to your baby-proofing toolkit.
Choosing the Right Corners to Cover
Focus on corners at your baby's eye level—typically on low tables, fireplace hearths, and countertops. Covering every corner in the house isn't necessary; prioritize the ones your baby is most likely to encounter during play and exploration.
Step-by-Step Installation Guide
- Clean the corner: Wipe the corner surface with a damp cloth and let it dry completely. Dust or grease can prevent the adhesive from sticking. Check that the surface is dry before applying.
- Peel off the adhesive backing: Carefully remove the backing paper from the foam cushion without touching the adhesive too much. Handle the adhesive minimally to keep it sticky.
- Position and press: Align the cushion so it covers the corner evenly, then press firmly for 30 seconds. This ensures a strong bond. Wait at least 24 hours before heavy use for best adhesion.
