Oideyasu! Please take off your shoes.
After visiting Kyoto City's childproofing house of horrors, showing all the ways that babies can get maimed or killed around the house, we tried to implement some of the suggestions, including putting safety latches on cupboards. Here, Greg (age 1 year, 8 months) shows how much respect he has for safety latches. Halfway through I mumbled "It's tough, isn't it?" And then he popped the latch. At the end I say "o-yatsu power!" o-yatsu just means "snacks" in Japanes. He knew there were cookies in that drawer. Taken with a Vodafone phonecam (Toshiba V-603T)

Ha ha! Really cute and funny.
Hey... does that mean that the other drawers with the safety latches on them have goodies inside, too?
No, but he likes to open them all up, take out *ALL* the contents, and arrange them in unlikely groupings around the kitchen and living room. Where they go back is somewhat random, except the snacks.
