Not sure what to suggest, but I'm the mama of a climber too. She started climbing around 4 months, a few weeks after she started combat crawling (very slowly and un-coordinated- took 10 min to get about 30 cm ahead). She wasn't even sitting unasisted at the time (not until a few weeks ago, in fact), and she also didn't start crawling until recently. We spent a lot of time on the sofa, she'd climb on the back of it, I'd keep her safe. We've got the washing rack behind the sofa, so she loved climbing on that. I was a bit stuck there, but DD doesn't like that I leave her anyway.
He's CLIMBING!
but he can't even crawl yet.
he rolls everywhere, and now he is pulling himself up and trying to hoist those chunk munchkin legs up too.
he is falling all the time now as well.
is there a toy er something that he can pull himself up on that's not gonna tip over or tip him over. our couch is a rocking couch, it's not very stabile. and our coffee table, well, doesn't exist.

How about a stack of floor cusions? Poppy likes to pull up a bit on ours, one of the reasons i got them is that they are so great to arange into things like steps. Even a firm pile of blankets or something, or a landry basket weighed down with something. I know you can buy toys that they can pull up with, but the ones i have seen are those big fisher price style monstrosities, i wouldnt get one as they are expensive and take up a lot of room.
