16 month old constant climbing

My dd is 16 months and her constant climbing is driving me nuts! Most of the house is shut up because she climbs on everything. Climbs on the window sills, climbs on the toilet, up ladders on my daughters bunk bed (she can go right to the top no problem) on my bed onto set of drawers, on the roof of the dolls house. She's even started to hang on the handles on the kitchen drawers and swing herself and the freezer door trying to climb up the fridge! I only live in a small flat and I also have a 4 year old and don't want us all shut up in the living all the time especially as my eldest has most of her toys in her room. What can I do? Do they grow out of it? She is obsessed!

They do grow out of it. Make sure your heavy furniture can't tip over and crush her.

The only thing to do is engage her in safer activities sadly or take her to the park. It will pass though.
