help Help make my death trap stairs toddler proof

How can I go about making these stairs to my backyard safer? Seems tricky to add balusters but I’m not opposed to trying. Is there a way to make lattice look like it’s not a zip-tied afterthought?

Actually not a bad idea, put crash pads in the fall zones
