Plug switch covers????


Hi everyone, does anyone know if you can get covers for the switchs on plug scokets or any ideas of what i could use? My darling daughter has just manage to reach the switch for the sky plus box resulting in the box no longer working and having to wait till wednesday for it to be repaired.(whilst the OH was watching the darts! hes not a happy bunny!). Thanks in advance x

I've never seen any but god I'd appreciate it if anyone found any! Ally's never been too bothered by the socket itself but he likes the switches. Nightmare!

I think you get them in mothercare and argos.
We happened to be in John Lewis and saw theirs - and bought them.
These ones are round and really damn hard to get out - unless you know the trick - to use the longest prong of the plug you want to plug in, which is used as a lever in a special hole underneath which helps to flip it out.

Managed to confuse my mum - LO hasn't figured it out yet - or even bothered trying - which I guess is even better!
