crawler-proofing my house?

hi i think ive covered most of the basic stuff but id just like some input on things to make my house safe for my daughter whos just started crawling and cruising. ive already done the draw & cupboard clips and corner rubbers etc.. and a gate across my kitchen (cos theres no door).. chemicals are all up high in laundry..

can any one think of any other major things i should be moving/blocking access too?

(i am never far from her anyway but as they say - only takes a second of having your back turned) so i just wanna make sure ive got everything covered.

    covers on the power outlets?

    no animal food or litters around

    just get down on your knees and check out whats happening at her height u will see heavy things on low shelves that can be pulled down...

    dont let her play with pots an dpans cos if she is in kitchen and see's a pot on the stove she may try to reach for her "toy"

    good luck...they get busy busy

    get on the floor and crawl around, look for things that look fun to pull down-and move them. use outlet protectors, no table cloths, and pull miniblinds up so baby doenst get hung up and strangle in them. Lots of dangers
