These 3 Items Are the Bestselling Baby Safety Products on Amazon

Mommy's Helper Outlet Plugs ($5) come in a pack of 26 and are the No. 1 baby safety product on Amazon for a good reason. They're the easiest type of baby-proofing product out there when it comes to installation, and when we first placed our big order of safety products, this was what I installed first. I went around to every room and popped them into the sockets. I've even stashed some in my purse — I can't tell you the number of times we've been at a restaurant seated near an outlet and my curious toddler has gotten too interested in the wall socket.

The Regalo Easy Step 38.5-Inch Extra Wide Walk Thru Baby Gate ($40) is the No. 2 bestselling safety product on Amazon, and parents love it because it is durable and can withstand frustrated toddlers shaking the bars (I can speak from experience). It's great for staircases and doorways and super adjustable.

Munchkin Xtraguard Dual Action Multi Use Latches ($9) are sort of an all-purpose latch that you can use on drawers of many different sizes and shapes. When I bought faulty over-the-knob connectors and laughable magnetic hooks, these Munchkin latches came to the rescue. I also use them on the toilets and diaper pail since my toddler loves to open those up, too. At some point, I may add one to the dishwasher. And as much as my child loves figuring out buttons and locks, she hasn't figured out how to open these yet, which is a huge relief.
