Television and Home Theater

Hey,
I have a small child fast approaching the crawling/toddling stages. I have power strips all over the place. What is a good approach to child proofing them. Those outlet plugs don't seem sufficient. Also I have a rat's nest of interconnects between the TV,DVD,DVR and the stero components. What is a good solution for those ?

After 3 trips and 2 returns at the A/V store, and hours of frustration trying fruitlessly to find one remote that could actually run all of my components, I finaaly found the answer. It took a little digging and a few questions, but the final answer came down to Manufacturer's devise codes. All universal remotes have devise codes. Some boast the largest library of codes in the world. Though this may be true, it can be deceptive. What good is the largest library when that claim is based on several duplicate codes from a given Manufacturer that can run several devices.

What's the scoop... is there such a thing... as in I have a new house but it's not wired, can this be done for less $?
