Childproofing AC adaptors

Feb 2003

With a busy 10-month-old, I've child-proofed all of the electrical outlets in my house -- both those in use and idle. The plastic ''boxes'' that cover the entire outlet so that babies can't pull out cords that are plugged in seem to work fine. But, what to do about those outlets that are accommodating an AC adaptor? The adaptors outsize the childproof covers. But, there are so many appliances that use them (e.g., baby monitors, radios, etc.). Any suggestions from parents that have graduated from this busy baby stage? Taping the adaptors to the wall is a possibility, but definitely suboptimal. Thanks in advance, Stephanie


In the new Childproofer catalogue, they are selling a cover designed to fit over adaptors. It is the same idea as the plastic box thing, just bigger. KB
