    wish I had some fantastic advice, but after DS learned to climb the bunk ladder at 7months old I'm still struggling with it. You def aren't alone.
    We keep our fruit in the fridge for that very reason.
    Running out of places for the TV remotes though....

    ps just a random thing...I dreamt of you and your 2 girls this morning.....

    Ours are on top of a box on top of a large speaker on top of the tv which is on top of a fairly high cabinet. My 9yo can barely reach up there. There's all sorts of other not-toddler-safe stuff up there too.

    We have a really big old CRT television, its actually so convenient having a big fat tv you can stack things on like that that we are putting off upgrading to a LCD one

    Don't know! I'm going through the same thing too ATM. I am considering buying something she can climb like a frame or gym thingy.

    When DS2 was going through the climbing stage I had to take everything off the kitchen bench so that there wasn't much to get into up there, but that doesn't work for this one. Just this afternoon she climbed into the sink and turned the tap on. Had a nice cold bath

    It's hard here too as she moves the furniture, although she's small it's nothing for her to move our big heavy wooden chairs and climb things.
    When she was younger she pulled out the drawers on her tallboy and used them as a ladder, lucky she didn't go 1 more it would have tipped.
