They won't leave the tv alone

[huey duey & luey]

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to block the tv buttons. My kids touch them all day long. We bought the plastic cover and they bent it so hard back it snapped (the tc is secured so thankfully it didnt come down on them). I have also tried tape , they just pull it off. Any ideas? Thanks

Is there any way you could cover the TV? When DD was a toddler I found that putting something out of sight usually did the trick. Maybe even throwing a sheet over it would help your kids forget it's there.

Just unplug it and let them push buttons!

set up a barricade in front of it.......she at first put it in the play pen....which is where they hid the first xmas tree too........the joy of triplets..........it gets better........honest......she assured me that .....make sure you check out a multiples discussion group and play group too......one for you and them together.......they have great ideas and even some of them sell each other their strollers or toys and clothes......it is a great way to keep your sanity
good luck

Unplugging is a good idea unless you have to reprogram your tv everytime you plug it in.

We bought an inexpensive armoire and installed baby locks on it (the heavy duty kind). The kids did manage to make a mess of the DVD's once, but I think DH forgot to lock the doors. I like the control it gives me over the tv and all the wires are hidden so it looks a lot better.

My 20 month old did that about 2 months ago. He has lost interest now. We did put a long piece of cardboard over the buttons and taped it down. McGuiver(sp.) quickly dismantled our contraption.

He does it occasionally. I can't imagine my son X 3. Good luck, especially if Huey, Duey and Luey are all boys.

Every cabinet in my kitchen has those thick rubberbands on them. It was the only thing that would keep him out. He can unlock any safety latch on the market!

My 23-mo old grandson came out of my daughter's room Monday night carrying the little door flap where you inert the DVD saying "It broke! It broke!" LOL Thank goodness it's an inexpensive DVD player and can be replaced!

LOL Huey is actually a Katie, but is as mishevious as her brothers. We actually we told we were expecting 3 boys (long story), I don't think Katie recieved the memo that she is suppossed to be a little sweet girl.
