Bolt furniture to the walls and watch out for lead poisoning. Extension cords, holiday lights and garden hoses are all coated with lead and can transfer from your hands into your child’s blood stream through their skin. Small amounts produce irreversible brain damage at this stage of brain development.

I was telling other parents to crawl around on the floor so you can get the view your kid gets in order to double check your baby proofing. They all laughed at me but I’m glad to hear someone else has done it too. All of your tips were great and I actually had one to add. On top of electrical covers I found fire prevention outlets. It is just another step in child proofing your house.

I have personally had to call the organ donation organizations to collect the organs of a child killed by a furniture tip-overs. The problem is real. To see the smiling faces of children tragically killed by furniture, see websites below:

Hey Lance,

Hope that tendonitis is healing. I feel everything in the upper back. Hey, just read the article you posted on child proofing and wanted to share this find. It’s a cord/ powerstrip storage solution I found at Tekserve, an apple computer shop on 23rd street. There are similar options available from child proofing web sites but I never liked any I saw. This may not be for everybody, it’s not cheap either (29$)but I bought one and like the result. Right now I just use one for the monster powerstrip in the living room where the t.v., computer, phone, etc. are plugged in. It keeps Gus at bay. He still goes toward the box but ends up just patting it instead of pulling on the cords and plugs.

cheers,

Jeff
