What are some safe ways to help my baby practice standing and cruising?

Asked 2 years ago

My little boy is 9 months old and has just started pulling himself up and cruising. How can I keep him safe during this stage? We already keep him barefoot and we make sure all objects surrounding him is reachable.

If you have furniture that are lightweight (easy to topple) or on wheels, then I would suggest keeping them away from your baby and have non-moveable or sturdy furniture they can use to pull themselves up on. Baby proofing is important, depth perception is still developing at this stage, be mindful or corners, edges and keep slippery items such as paper off of the floor.
