Ugh. One of my 1 yo dcb's has an obsession with my curtains in my living room! I can't keep him from playing in them. I can't keep them out of his reach because they need to be covering the window because sun beats thru them all day long. He goes behind them and then wraps himself up in them. He even tried swinging on them. Every day I have to remove him from them probably 10 to 15 times! Ugh. Other than getting new window coverings (which isn't feesible since my windows are huge and it would be very costly), I am not sure what to do! He has been here since September, so I would think he would get it by now! Ideas?

Baby gate in front of them? (like a superyard, since you say the windows are huge)

Or maybe a piece of furniture?

Im not sure what its called but I have used the decorative cling that sticks to windows to avoid curtains and keep the glare out. It comes in rolls like contact paper or in sheets. You can get it in a variety of shades or designs. It also helps in the summer to reduce the "heat" from the sun shinning.

kind of like these......

Everytime he does it, he should go to a safe zone, such as a high chair....or put him in a baby safe play area. We should not have to put a baby gate in front of our curtains to keep a child out.
