The best toy. Ever.

In times of desperation, when nothing else seems to be working (not napping, not bouncing, not singing), sometimes a great toy can work wonders.

I will share one of the secrets of instant baby happiness: this toy. Which is the best toy ever.

  • Aw yes, the magical, magical keys! Used those just yesterday to entertain my friends 18 month old little man!

  • La clave está en la llave! Alice está preciosa...por cierto tiene una cara de "pillina" y traviesa increíble. Y que sonrisa....
    Besos!!!

  • I got through years of church with keys and coins (had taught them "not in the mouth"). In a few months she could spend hours with a slotted bank with the stopper out of the bottom and a bowl of coins next to it. Those are some staples for sure!

  • haha nice. i've had friends' babies/small children play with and/or "lose" my keys. :) super great toy!

  • Dennis always says that we don't need to buy our kid toys because they love everyday things so much more! Usually if you get them a big toy, they have more fun in the empty box. Alice is so cute, and the one with her sticking the key in her nose and cracking up is hilarious!

  • Alice is super cute for sure but I can't help remembering this PSA that I saw regarding battery safety:

    Just another thing to keep us on our toes! I have known moms that have kept a "toy" set of real keys from a collection of spares, having been disinfected (any batteries removed), but still including interesting grown-up textures like metal, plastic and leather.

    • Thanks for your comment Jessica! Yep, safety is so important, and I wasn't even thinking about battery safety so thanks for bringing it to my attention.
