[blparent] question

[Kliph]

These are all great ideas, and I've used most of them.  But one thing that I
do when my sited Wife isn't home because my kids are so independent, is I
put bells on them so they can move around, and this way I know where they
are at all times, they also think it's fun to make noise where ever they
move.  This way if I'm in the kitchen cooking or something, I will know
whether it is safe to open the oven or carry something hot to the sink to
drain or finish prepping.  Hope this helps.

It depended on how mobile my daughter was at the time. When she was a new 
born and couldn't roll over I would just put her on a blanket on the floor 
in the living room. My kitchen was right off of the living room, so I could 
hear what was happening with her, and talk to her. I also had a bouncer that

she would love to sleep in. When she started rolling over I would put her on

the floor with her play gym over her, so that she could play with the 
dangling toys. Plus it would only let her roll either a very short 
distances. When she was able to crawl and walk, then we used the play pin 
more. Also I would block off the areas I didn't want her to be able to go. 
Oh yeah another thing we used was the exersaucer. This looks very similiar 
to a walker, but instead of wheels it has a saucer looking bottom. It has 
different toys all around it, and the kid can bounce or spin their self 
around to the different toys. Now that my daughter is 2 I just find 
different things for her to do while I am cooking and things. She sometimes 
will watch one of her dvds, color, or play in her room.
