Protect Your Baby’s Every Move with Munchkin *Giveaway closed*

With the recent launch of Munchkin’s new modern safety gate line Munchkin is excited to announce a new contest called “Protect Your Baby’s Every Move.” Munchkin is having a Facebook contest, but one of MommyMandy Readers will receive one awesome prize!!! Yep, one reader will win a $50 American Express gift card (to help decorate your child’s room) and a safety gate to help protect your baby!

About the new line of Munchkin Safety Gates

  • Munchkin safety gates are built to the highest quality standards and rigorously tested to meet or exceed both U.S. and European safety standards.
  •  Munchkin infant safety gates are aesthetically pleasing and come in a wide range of measurements, price points, styles and mounting types.

I just love the look of The Deco Gate. When both form and function matter, The Deco gate blends the natural look of dark wood with a steel U-shaped powerframe that provides extra safety.  The Deco gate’s triple-locking mechanism and two-way opening door provide both safety and versatility.

KEY FEATURES: 
  • Gate locks shut with just a simple push
  • Use virtually EveryPlace™ in the home – top of stairs, bottom of stairs, between rooms
  • Dual locks on handle is easy for adults to use, but difficult for a child
  • Optional third lock offers added safety
  • Steel U-shaped powerframe keeps gate securely in place
  • Extra wide 21.5” walkthrough allows for easy in and out access
  • Extends up to 54” with additional extensions (sold separately)
  • Door swings open in both directions

   For more information please visit www.infantgates.com

And if you want to enter Munchkin’s bigger giveaway, head on over to their Facebook page and share a funny picture or video of your baby’s first steps, baby dancing or moving with Munchkin! Munchkin will select a weekly Facebook winner (from Feb. 15 – May 15) to win a safety gate and $50 gift card to redo their nursery.  One grand-prize winner will also receive a nursery set from Munchkin (valued at $530) and a $250 American Express gift card to help with their design.  A second winner will receive a $250 American Express gift card to help decorate their child’s room. 

WIN
ONE winner will receive a $50 American Express gift card and a Deco Baby Gate.

    I learned how to properly measure

    Measure the width of the opening where the gate will be placed, then round down to the nearest half inch. If your walls have molding at the base, make sure to measure between the base boards to ensure the gate will fit in between the narrowest part of the opening.

    I learned that step over gates can be used in areas with little to no traffic, but if you expect normal to heavy foot traffic through the opening, it’s important to find a gate with a door or swing-open feature that allows you to walk through.
