Well… most of them have been confiscated… ^_^ cos, I seriously cannot take the mess in the house, toys are everywhere… all the "pots and pans", all the "cups and spoons"… bla bla bla… whenever I see such mess, I'll start to get moody, and starts to scold her…
Therefore, last week, mid of last week… (I think on my birthday) I took them away, for good…
I told her, one day, when you're old enough to organize your own things, and when you know how to put them back to where they're supposed to be… then, I'll give it back to you…
But it doesn't mean that, she's toyless there're things that I can't hide, and I don't want to hide…
For eg. Her push cars, her rocking mooze, how to hide? Those big things, like her fisher price musical chair…
Also, her flash cards.. Her books… her stationeries, yep… those I won't hide, and her lego duplo set… (though I hide the lego set, cos, she didn't really play with it, but only take out the small pieces and do her "fried rice" thing… @_@)
Anyway,
So, as of today,
Her flashcards become her plates,
Her lego duplo blocks become her cakes, sometimes bubble maker (those with the round thing and you put on some soap water, and blow to have some bubbles), and sometimes, her phones, sometimes, just something else…
In a way, yes, maybe it sounds a little bit pathetic here, but then, I'm pretty happy with her imagination, and the sort of things she can come out with… those limited "tools" that I've left for her…
Else, what she'll do with her other TOYS, is…
Everyday, after she gets up from bed, she'll take them out from the drawers, spread them all over the place… and YES, didn't even want me to nag her to pick them up and put them back…
I just told her,
You mess up the place, I'm unhappy,
But if I ask you to tidy up, you're unhappy…
So, the deal is, limited toy,
Limited play area…
Then, we both, in a way, stay happy!!
