    Is it a flat screen or a regular TV? We have a flat screen that is mounted to the wall. It is up very high and there is no way my son can pull up on it. You could get shelves built into the wall or mount the tv stand to the wal. You can also get a TV stand where the TV is set high.

    You could get something like this to put around the TV

    This works for us, we just put a baby gate up in front of the tv stand, and it keeps my son away. He was more interested in the DVD player, and all that junk with cords. So the baby gate works for now.

    Hi there! Welcome to the next stage of your life :) It was a pretty big adjustment for me! But it's fun. They get into soooo much trouble when they start this stage. You basically just need to watch him. He'll crawl to trouble and things he shouldn't! They're just drawn to it :) Some basics of course stairs gates, bathroom keep the door closed lock the toilet, lock up chemicals and garbage can(they love garbage), make sure the plants you own aren't poisonous(poinsettas are), coffee table edges, chimney edges, cords, electrical outlets, wall units make sure they're nailed to the wall(they become little spider monkeys climbing on it to stand up). That's all I did. IT's not that bad you'll do things as he gets into them. Enjoy it's so fun seeing them bomb around. He'll be so independant crawling to all the different rooms in your house exploring too fun!

    Why not a baby gate?
