You are welcome.
I copied the charts from the website I originally referenced.

Kids like to climb, so I guess the falls are consequences from that.
Looks like if you leave out the 15 year old and up "children" from the "Fatal firearm accidents in 2007 by age groups" portion of the stats, there are about 65 firearms related accidental deaths among children under 15 each year.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
