Ah, very tiring I bet! If you have an old baby gate it should fit inside a normal doorframe and keep him contained providing he can't open it. We have a dog who is not overly kid friendly at times so when dd went into a big girl bed we would put a gate on her door so that if she got out of bed she couldn't leave her room and go wondering around the house in case the dog was inside. In addition like you said, i was nervous that she would find a way outside and we live in bush area! To be honest it became awesome because we would get a little extra sleep on the weekends when we would sneak in their before going to bed and strategically place her fun toys around the room for her to find in the morning! She would then wake up in the morning and play happily in her room and just call out to us when she was done! Some people have found this a bit weird but at the end of the day I knew she was safe in her room and that was the most important thing to me. She could always open her door and yell out plus I had an old video monitor in her room so I could always check what she was up to.
Btw from my response you probably realised that I am a big believer in the importance of parental sleep!!! Nothin wrong with saying that he should play in his room without waking you!!!! Bahahahaha
