    actually toilet paper is one of our biggest issues....we've had to lock that away or there'd be none left for the intended purpose lol
    have you got hooks to hook all your blind/curtain pull away from little people's reach?
    are your indoor plants dangerous to littlies (I have a plant eater lol)?
    We actually had to take the handles off the buffet so that the adventurer coulndn't explore in there

    In the bathroom - the toilet brush (my 2yo DS loves to try to clean the toilet), spout cover for the bath,
    Waste paper bins/kitchen rubbish bin, put up high or put a "lock" on them.
    TV/audio equipment - either block access or teach your child to not touch it
    Doors - either get magnetic door stops or those foam horseshoe shaped cushions that stop doors from slamming on little fingers.

    Heaps of other things, but these are the immediate things I can think of.

    Have a crawl around at her level and see what things you may have missed at her eye level. Everyone else has given great suggestions

    Good suggestion. Now I bet someone knocks on the door to see me wiggling along the floor! If it's the postie he already knows I'm strange from when he gives me fluffy mail

    Thanks for the input everyone. I did miss a load! this child proofing thing is new to me >.<
