Item: Baby ToysDescription: Anything!!
Pros: Toys are cheap!
Cons: Are there any??
Thoughts: Andrew has banned anything that lights up, sings or makes any noise. I did get a bouncy seat that vibrates, but that was it. Last week a friend gave us a little ball that lights up and sings the alphabet song (they weren't aware of A's ban :)... Ben LOVED IT, for about 30 minutes. :) As soon as the newness wore off, his love affair was over. I am just hear to say that Ben has some expensive toys, but his favorites are a baking powder can, an empty tums bottle and an old aquafina bottle with dry beans in it. And as you can see, it doesn't get any better than a pot and a wooden spoon... this kept his busy for HOURS!! Who needs expensive toys when you have a kitchen and some old plastic bottles. :)

As long as he doesn't get into the whole "kitchen knife scene" that some little boys get into, I think you're set.
It's crazy, isn't it! Jon has loads of toys, but other than a few for later (Legos, etc.) I'm tempted to get rid of most of them! He prefers empty bottles, books and anything Mark and I use. I wonder if it's more a "boy thing" or if girls are like that too?
so true, so true. Caleb especially NEVER played with baby toys. He loved playing with wooden spanking spoons the most.
I love that Andrew has a toy ban. Way to lay down the law, Dad.
