A In their original containers, under the kitchen sink.
B On high shelves, out of sight but easily accessible.
C In locked cabinets or containers, out of reach and sight.
D In the laundry room, on the floor for easy access.

✓ Correct Answer: Option C

The safest way to store cleaning products and medications in a home with young children is in locked cabinets or containers, out of their reach and sight, to prevent accidental ingestion or contact. Storing them under the sink or on easily accessible shelves, even if high, still poses a risk if not secured.
