Abstract (2. Language): 
Some traditional habits may enhance the risk for household accidents in childhood. This is a case report of two years, six months boy with drug poisoning and burn injury. He was attended to the hospital with poisoning with ibuprofen which has been given for pain relief of burn injury. Burn injury was caused by hot tea located on the “sofra”, a traditional special cloth serving as a kind of table in rural area. A month ago, he had also burnt by hot tea while having breakfast. This case was presented to emphasize the role of traditional habits on household accidents where traditions continue to have major effects upon people.
