7000 million toys
To quote Anth:
That's Callum for you. We have all the toys the older boys have accumulated over nearly ten years, as well as things we've gotten for him. These are all in our back rumpus room. Callum doesn't like going out there. He'd rather be where everyone else is. This also means that his main focus areas have fallen on Aidan's room, where he gets his nappy changed; the kids toilet, because for god knows what reason, the kids are in and out of there all the time; and the fridge, because its in the kitchen.
Aidan's DVDs always end up on the floor. Every time you pick them up, within the next 15 minutes Callum has gone in there and pulled them all off the shelf. There's no easy way around this, because Aidan likes them to be in a certain place. Callum can reach that certain place. The same with the toilet. There's only one place where the toilet paper can go. Callum doesn' think that its on the rack, rather, its all over the floor in a fun playful bundle.
The fridge is another big bugbear at the moment. All the soft fridge food has his finger prints in it. All the hard food invariably gets dragged out onto the floor, with little rat boy teeth marks in it. As I posted yesterday he is a rodent in the making.
Ciao for Now, Now Go Play Angry Dad.
"We have 7000 million toys in this house, and he still plays with Aidan's DVD's, the toilet and the fridge!"

I'm going to say it again, get a child lock . . . in fact get several. Do you have Babies R' Us in Australia, because they had really cool strappy locks for the refrigerator that were easily removed once this phase is over! Good Luck!!!

We have child locks, but he's the only kid I know who can break them!
A Rumpus Room isn't as kinky as it sounds. Its basically the play room where all the toys get stored, and where the kids are supposed to play.
I can't help you on the DVD's, but we ended up getting a lock for our fridge.
I still often find a car 'parked' behind the butter.
boy i can relate to this post. the kids always want to play with the non-toys..
Lawd. i can so relate to this post. It makes my mind swim. We have at least a million and one toys around here too, but yet the kids always want to play with something that's not their's. Flashlight, my phone, dangerous stuff I can't think of right now...
As for the frig, we use to use those childproof locks and they at least slowed the boys down so i could catch them in the act! have lots of fun Angry Dad.
