Ditto what therink said, but also explore childproof latches at any hardware store, (cheaper than kids r us) and install it close enough to the slider window that an adult wanting to enter can activate it from outside.
When the kids were little I also ran a strip of colored electrical tape around the outside edge of the sheet metal grating to cushion the sharp stamped sheet metal edges from delicate fingertips.
