The chief care needed during
the period of growth and develop.
ment is protection against
serious injury. Fearsome and
short-sighted parents avoid
accidents" by preventing the
activity and inspiring fear at the
cost of the training and invalu-
able experience of the child.
Courageous and informed par
ents closely supervise the child's
activities during these early
years and take measure to pre-
vent possible disastrous results
of accidental falls at the cost of
some patience, time. energy and
ingenuity. A friend tells of
placing sofa pillow under the
baby as it first attempted to
climb the stair. The inevitable
fall occurred but it's confidence
was not destroyed.
There is practical safe
device that will largely broaden
the range of the child's oppor-
tunities to climb, ensure his
performing the movements in a
manner calculated to secure the
best results and that without
danger, and at the same time
prove a source of joy and pleas
ure to both child and parents.
Take the baby's high chair
and remove the Stats or spindles
of the back leaving only the
frame with an opening large
enough for the child to crawl
through. Fasten rungs across
the back legs of the chair, con-
verting it into a ladder. The
baby climbs the ladder and
reaching through the opening in
the back of the chair grasps the
side arms of the chair. He
draws his legs and body through
and extending his legs in front

sits down. To get down he re-
verses the process. A child at
twelve or fourteen months will
learn this trick in one or two
trials and will never voluntarily
permit itself to be lifted into or
out of it's chair thereafter.
The use of this chair may be
extended by attaching to it's
front a smooth waxed board
reaching the floor at an angle OF
about thirty degrees, to be used
as slide. The pleasure of this
experience serves to greatly
promote the use of the chair as
a climbing apparatus.
