I have distinct memories from when I was 2 or so, approaching an outlet with a spoon. I stuck it in the cold side before my mom grabbed me. My first expression of love for electricity. When our daughter was a toddler, my wife bought a bunch of these inexpensive plastic plugs that go in to outlets. I think that they were made by Safety1st. They are not easy to remove, I remember cursing them whenever I had to plug something in. Ten years later, I'm still finding them in out of the way outlets. My daughter never got shocked, however, she never developed an interest in electricity, either, so I'm not sure if it was worth it...... Dan
