People made the mistake of giving my kids grated cheese yesterday, they grab a handful and try to put as much into their mouth as they can. It's a nightmare of a mess because you can't just vacuum it. Leave it to dry and it could just get stomped into the floor. Sweep too hard and you could just smear it. We really shouldn't just offer them the bag to grab handfuls
Are they old enough to use it as a chopstick training medium?
I own a dog, dropped cheese is NEVER a problem.
Dog ownership should be a prerequisite for parenthood, if only to do the food clean ups!
Unfortunately we don't have a dog. It would be very well fed at our place.
Chopsticks would be beyond them at the moment. We still need to get them to use cutlery instead of just their hands
thats the worst! yogurt is bad too.
Yoghurt dries out fast and then you're left with that semi solid paste of the cultures. It's a real headache if you don't get on it straight away
