GreenMonkey Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Hey other parent-folk I need some sort of device to tell me when my little girl gets up (she just turned 3 last week). Lately she's been getting up, getting the door open, and getting into all sorts of trouble (a jar of black pepper and baking powder all over the floor...etc...today I found she'd upended the catfood dish from downstairs all over the floor. I'm told you can get a motion sensing type device. I need something that I can put by her door and when she crosses it it sends off a remote alarm. Closest thing I've found so far is this: http://www.amazon.com/32sports-com-Safety-Beam-Alert/dp/B000B9J6XC/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=hi&qid=1231978292&sr=8-2 Anyone have any good links? I'd prefer to do this than to try to stop her getting out of her room. She'd simply pull something over to climb over a babygate and getting childproof handles wouldn't work well (as the door is a little bit warped being 20 years old and tends not to latch very well).

SCREWNUT Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Not a parent, but what you need is a motion sensor Alarm. Anything moves past it range and of goes off. The one at the store I use to work at had two settings. A nice chime sound to tell us we had customers for daytime use and then for night time we would switch it to alarm mode. A 90db alarm.

Camp Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 This might work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jubjub75 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 I'd go with Camp's idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMonkey Posted January 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Check your local hardwood stores Freudian slip? I think you mean hardWARE stores. I'll try to stop in at Ace Hardware and see what they have. Camp - good idea, that would surely do the trick. Might be overkill though.
