PDA

View Full Version : Ugh! Is it me or are toys just impossible to take out of the package?

DD had her bday party today and after everyone left, I thought I'd open up some of her toys so she could play a little before bedtime. There were 5 things to be taken out of boxes. With all the twisty ties and hard plastic, it took me an hour to get them out. Some of the twist ties were wrapped around wheels three or four times and each individual part was wrapped up in plastic. Needless to say, I didn't get finished before she had to go to bed, so the toys are all ready for her for tomorrow.

Does anyone else find it ridiculously hard to get toys out quickly or am I missing something that would make my life easier?

Happy Birthday to Kyleigh! And welcome to the world of toddler toys. It seems like the toys just get worse and worse as they get older. Things that will help? Some sharp scissors and a knife! Do not try to open toys with the kiddo around, it could be dangerous! :) Hope she has fun with them tomorrow!
