Kid Kusion Driveway Guard

As children become more mobile, safety when playing outdoors becomes of greater concern to parents. Now that my son likes to ride his bicycle, he wants to be outside all the time. Sometimes Mommy is just too busy working to be out there with him the entire time. This Kid Kusion Driveway Guard looks like it might be the answer to my problem. The retractable driveway guard creates a boundary for your child to prevent him from entering the road. The orange safety net is 36 inches high, and the guard comes in two designs, one that is 18 feet wide and one 25 feet wide. It weighs 7 lbs, and looks easy enough to install - just pound two stakes into the ground.

The company does state that this is not to be used in place of a safety gate, and not to be used around a pool. It has been featured in Parents Magazine and recommended by many parenting organizations. Of course, the Kid Kusion is not a replacement for parental supervision, but it might make things easier if Mommy is outside working in the garden and your child is riding his tricycle around the driveway. You can purchase the Kid Kusion at KidKusion.com. The narrower model is $95, and the wider one sells for $120. The company also sells driveway safety signs (”Caution: Children Playing”) and other safety items at its site.
