Daylight Saving Time To Do List

In addition to turning your clocks back one hour last night, some good things to do when daylight saving time changes can include:

• changing the batteries in your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors
• in addition to replacing the batteries, you should consider replacing smoke alarms that are more than ten years old and carbon monoxide detectors that are more than five years old
• cleaning out your medicine cabinet to get rid of expired and unused medicines

And this can be a good time to make sure your kids are getting enough sleep, as the changes during daylight saving time can sometimes interfere with their sleep routines.
