You guys are right, Amazon Prime owns. End.
I do have a question for the CP collective genious though. What kind of child locks do you guys use on cabinets? The house had some on there, but some of them are broken and they're generally not good. |

Maybe online reviews would gird against this, or maybe we'll get some sort of 3-D holographic technology to check stuff out. I don't have a loyalty to brick and mortar businesses if they don't add value, but the tough thing right now is that they add value and don't get paid for it.

Don't forget toilet locks, either. They're a PITA for adults but save lives. I'll try to remember to link later when I'm not on the iPad but Amazon has all of these online. |

Personally, I'd shop for everything online if I could because my time is so limited. Going to Costco burns two hours minimum for each trip, groceries and Target at least two more. That's a lot of time when you've got young kids with play dates, homework and everything else that life requires. |

And for God sake if you have a pool put a fence around it.

My parents put child locks on their cabinets and the boys seemed more interested in that because the couldn't get into the cabinets. Never really saw the need for them and never had a problem with it. |

We have multiple staircases so I put in retractable gates on two of the three staircases and one in our child-proofed playroom. When the kids are away or asleep, the gates are open and I never even notice the mechanisms anymore (they're white, so they blend in with the baseboards and door casings). |

The only thing that we HAVE installed is door handle covers. Those little punks love to get into rooms that they shouldn't be in. Now not so much. |

The non-slamming toilet seats are a good thing to get if you have boys once they are potty trained. That can do some damage.

Our situation is probably different than most. We have absolutely no family in SoCal. The nearest relatives are 400 miles away and they're too old to babysit or nanny. So with that being the case, we've had multiple nannies and babysitters in the past 5+ years and there's a piece of mind knowing that everything is locked and child proofed when we're away.
We also have multiple video monitors and even a heart rate monitor in the baby crib. |
