Then of course we unook it before we go to bed.

It might seem a little harsh but nothing else would work......

If they get out of bed, warn them and put them back in bed. If they continue to get out of bed, keep putting them back and don't say a word to them. Eventually you will win but it is a long hard battle. (The baby gate is obviously a little easier.)
