Redfoot keeps tipping himself over because climbs everything

My redfoot climbs on every item in his indoor enclosure that I put in there for him to have for cover to hide under. The bad thing is he does it until he tips himself over. I've gotten to the point that I can't have anything in there because I'll come home to find him on his back. This worries me. I have a 54" x 24" indoor enclosure that is his fall and winter home. He is only three years old, so I feel he has plenty of room to run around in there when he is not out in the house under my supervision. He just seems so unhappy in there with just a food dish and "pond". He seems bored. I want to give him some cover, but everything I put in there he climbs on, and inevitably tips himself over. I've tried wooden boxes, cardboard in all shapes and sizes, plants, everything. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated by me and my big boy. Thanks.
