Does your baby do this?

My 13 month old is walking and running and climbing and causing general terror which is everything I would expect from my son. I am curious if anybody knows why he has started hiding his toys? He puts them all over the house and I find them in the funniest places--the camera bag, under the stairs, etc. Does anybody know what this is about?

MummyLJ - 871 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) My daughter did that- I think it's a control thing. Kids have to do what we say all the time, anytime they can be in charge of something, they love it! So putting toys "away" where he wants is something he can do all by himself. My daughter is 5 now, and now her thing is rearranging her room. I miss the hidden toys in my shoes! lol

xidja - 871 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) my daughter is just over 12 mos and doesnt do this yet but i have read that at this age they really like playing hide n seek so maybe he's just playing that by himself??? also their memory is getting really good so maybe he's testing himself and seeing if he can remember where he's hidden them?

twinmama2be - 871 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Lol, my oldest did this as well. I'd find little cars in my shoes and toys in my purse,etc. He was always putting his toys somewhere strange. Who knows why, no harm in it though. My youngest never did it.
