Place both negative or positive ends facing each other. This should help to prevent battery corrosion. I have never had batteries corrode when placed this way.

It is important advice for parents that children need to know the hazards of corroded batteries. We have so many toys now days that take batteries. Kids try to change batteries themselves but rarely know of the dangers. Thank you for detailing this out. Your tip on using the drill bit is a great solution.
