child proofing with a pool noodle! - Real Mum story on MoM

13 Comments

Just wanted to share this tip with you lovely ladies! i saw a cool trick where you get a pool noodle and slice it on one side and slip it over any sharp edges of furniture, railings etc and cut off any over hang.

You can also use it to stop slamming doors! you can wedge the sliced noodle over the top of the door to prevent it from being slammed shut on little bubs!

These pool noodles seem really multi-purpose when it comes to baby proofing your home plus they are only around $3 per noodle.

Yes, that’s a great idea. Flexible recticulation hoses also work well if you want a bit less bulk.

Great! You can also use them inside your long boots, to keep them in shape.
