Climbing Toddlers And Baby Gates
Once your baby reaches the toddler stage… watch out. When they figure out how to get around they can be gone in the twinkling of an eye it seems. One of the things we found that all babies like to do is climb on the safety gate. When we looked at safety gates for stairs, we looked for ones with as much strength as we could possibly find.
When toddlers begin pulling themselves with the aid of the gate, they also can easily cause it to move, or in severe cases, even fall down altogether. When it’s set up in a carpeted bedroom that may not be as bad, but if the gate is blocking off the steps leading downstairs, it can be tragic. This is one good reason why baby’s and toddlers need constant supervision. But it is also a good reason for buying the best type of safety gate that you can find. You never know when it will be tested by your child, but rest assured, it will be as the days go by.
