Hail Clavus!
I am dealing with the same thing with my second child of the same age as yours. She likes to push the chairs around so she can climb them to reach the bookshelves, television, computer, knife drawer, etc. I am certain she would attempt to initiate the auto self-destruct sequence of our house, if we had one. My first daughter would never do things like this. I usually stick her in the crib for a "time out" when she doesn't listen. It works for a while but certainly isn't the cure all you are looking for. Soon she will learn to climb out of that. When she really gets mad she tries to claw my eyes out. She is so cute when she tries to maim and disfigure. What I am really saying is I have no answers. I just hope to keep them alive long enough so they outlive me. I'm not sure exactly how long that is.
I am no help,
-GH
