When I use to cage my kids, I was worried about them falling so I put the cage up on a table where they couldn't reach the wire to climb. Then my husband designed a ramp for them to get in and out. He had to make it come down partway to a landing, and then down to the floor because straight down would have been too steep.He also covered it so they couldn't fall over the side. I saw a picture once where someone made a chute out of tubing used to take sawdust away from a table saw. You could coil it around so it's not too steep. Hope this helps, Jodi and the bratpack [Posted in FML issue 5149]
