Child proofing your Home Theater


Furniture Straps


Kids love to climb furniture, and that can be very dangerous! These easy-to-install brackets anchor furniture pieces right to the wall, so kids can’t accidentally tip them over. Designed for dressers, wall units — anything your little explorer might try to climb. Straps install with just a screwdriver and unhook for easy cleaning. Includes two straps (use at least two for each piece of furniture).
price: $6.95





Cord Control

Wherever there’s a tangle of cords...there’s a toddler ready to yank them! Eliminate temptation with our flexible cord holder. It quickly bundles and conceals those snarled cables for a safer house and a neater look. This eight-foot tube holds 40% more than others we tested, and the full-length slit makes it a cinch to use. (Technologically impaired? You also get eight sets of color-coded labels for easily matching cords to jacks.)

price: $15.95






Power Strip Cover

Safeguard your power strip. You’ve childproofed your electrical outlets — don’t overlook that computer power strip! Our safety cover snaps over the entire power strip, latching firmly in place. You can remove it easily, but your child can’t. Includes four safety plugs to cover unused outlets on the strip.

price: $8.95






TV/DVD Guard

Protect your TV from curious little fingers with our easy-on TV guards. Transparent guards block the control panel, but won’t interfere with use of your remote. For TVs, choose: original guard for screens up to 19” (19"L x 3¼"H ), large guard for screens 25” and up (10"L x 1"H), or new flat screen guard (6"L x 1½"H). More smart ideas: DVD Guard (16½"L x 3¼"H; fits CD players and stereos, too) and VCR Guard (14"L x 3¼"H)
