Safety first

My son's changing table has been in the family for over 20 years. It has been handed down from sibling to sibling. It has been recovered many times! Unfortunately it didn't have any rails to prevent the kid from rolling off. The first time my son rolled I caught him before he hit the floor, but the second time I missed. At that point I decided that I HAD TO come up with some way to prevent falls due to rolling. I got a board and had it cut to length. I covered it with batting, fabric, and vinyl. I attached it to the front of the changing table using L brackets. It isn't pretty, but it is doing the job!
