We have a tower fan in the nursery. How have you childproofed them? I'm thinking of going to home depot and getting some mesh to cover the fan?

We haven't decided what to do about our multiple fans, other than so far keeping LO away from them while they're on. We haven't had a serious hot streak yet though. With the tower fan I'm also concerned about her pulling it down on top of her. So we will likely avoid letting her move freely in the nursery during the summer, instead putting her in her play space in the living room (where the setup is easier to keep her away from them).

We have a bladeless one now, but before we just had it on a dresser out of reach...

@PawPrints: Yeah, the babies don't play in the nursery where the fan is. (They are usually in their cribs or on the changing table. We move them out to the living room where they play.) Since both babies are now squirmy during diaper changes, I've been changing their diapers on the floor of the nursery. The fan is about a few feet away, so I always am watching them. I guess I would feel better to protect their little fingers even in those few minutes where I am changing them on the floor. Luckily, they aren't near the fan during their play time.

@catomd00: Oh, we have the bladeless one (Dyson) in our living room but it's doesn't have the timer like the tower one we have. DH and I do like that Dyson one (even though, it's a bit pricey).
