Hey folks
I am interested in suggestions anyone may have on how to protect my 1.5 yo from touching the stove. I have a VC defiant and I am worried that he will walk over and touch it. He is a little too young to understand hot yet. A more elaborate setup would be ok since this is our first child and we expect to have more. I am thinking of building a fence around the hearth in the shape of a U but will need to figure out how to support the bottom of the U, the tops would be anchored to the wall.
I am sure I am not the first to have a stove in the family room with small children. How have the rest of you dealt with this situation?
Thanks
Gazelle
