Lyla is my sweet, adorable, lovely girl. She might also be the world's busiest baby. I knew she was really, really, really busy...when not one, not two, but three people last week asked me if I ever sit down or relax.
The answer is no. I never sit or relax, unless she is sleeping. Lyla is always on the go. Climbing on things, coloring on her herself, and swiping my phone are among her favorite past times. We may or may not call her tiny tornado. I read an article a while back about activities to do with your busy toddler. Caps in a wipe case was one of the activities. I tried it. It was a hit, she loved this!
You'll need:
an empty wipe case
and caps or lids ( MAKE SURE THEY PASS THE CHOKING TEST )
Give all of the above objects to your toddler. Show he/she that the caps go in the wipe case, and then allow them to take over. I showed Lyla once and she was like ... I got this mom...watch out...or at least that is what I envisioned her saying. She has played with this over and over again...for at least 5 mins or more. Trust me 5 minutes might not seem like much, but it is a lot in mom time.

You're brilliant! Seriously, you should design toys.
i agree with the previous commenter :) addilyn's new favorite "toy" is the wipes container
What a cute idea! I swear, the simplest things keep little ones busy, and they are never the toys we actually buy for them;)
Um. Genius. Storing this away for sure. And can I just say..I love that first photo. Her little toes are adorable.
She is to precious. I remember those days of just wanting 5 minutes of peace!!
ha, i love this! wesley is crazy busy too...its insane. how old is lyla now? the thing that entertained wesley the most on our 10 hr plane ride was putting a toothbrush in and out of a water bottle, ha!
