Arrrgh.

Mac figured out over the weekend how to beat the chlld-proof door handle locks we have installed to safeguard various areas of the apartment. Since he can climb over the playzone wall, this means that the only remaining safely contained area for him is his crib - till he figures that out, at least.

It's going to be a very long day.

Anyone know if they make childproof devices for creative baby engineers?

Also, height can do a lot for you. If the handle devices no longer work, think about other security that you can fit on higher on the door. He can't figure it out if he can't reach it.

How does he feel about baby gates? You can install those one over the top of another.

He climbs over baby gates or moves furniture so he can climb over them. Taller baby gates just mean a longer drop on the other side, I think....:( Still, we may try installing a lock higher up, at least for now.
