CLIMBING! -Advice??

This kid keeps me on my toes!

All he wants to do is climb on the Tables, Climb on the chairs to open doors, get onto the counter, climb onto computer desk.

I dont know what to do anymore?

I tried to change the behavior any way I could...I literally cannot make myself something to eat, go to the bathroom etc without yelling at him to get off the kitchen counters.

What works? Is this a phase and just deal with it? Or times outs? ( there would be like 500 a day then?) Take the furniture out of the house? LOL

Im open to all suggestions.

Re: CLIMBING! -Advice??

Is he climbing to reach for things or just climbing to climb?

I have a climber too. I try to put his stuff at his own level...this way there is really no reason for him to be climbing. It's helped. But he still can't be trused alone for 5 minutesChat Icon

he wants to touch things that he cant have. He climbs to get the coffee pot, to get to the pens, to the rack of bills, potato chips etc.... Most stuff I can hide but its all "so new" to him I guess.
