Toilet Paper Barricade – a Toddler Trick for indoors

The first time my toddler got hold of a roll of toilet paper I was chasing her around the house just envisioning the mess it was going create but now I encourage it!!! Every few weeks I will grab a roll of toilet paper while she is having her afternoon sleep and wrap it around the furniture throughout the house so she wakes up to a room full of adventure! She has such fun climbing over and under the toilet paper barriers.

This toddler trick is perfect for any toddler!

What you need:

  • - A roll of toilet paper
  • - Furniture

How to play:

- Using the toilet paper roll drape and wrap around parts of your furniture throughout the house. (Cushions are great to hold bits in place however I find wrapping around items of furniture is the easiest!)

A few more things you should think about:

  • - Make sure you are wrapping the toilet paper around secure and steady furniture that isn’t going to fall over.
  • - Try and salvage as much toilet paper as you can to reuse.

Note: Do save the inner cardboard roll as you will need it for our Toddler Trick on Friday.

Hi I’m Lou from Sydney____________________________________ I'm a young mum with a passion for coming up with creative ideas to keep my toddler entertained that don’t cost a lot. Other mums and dads seemed to like sharing my ideas and have encouraged me to develop “Toddler Tricks” an online box of great ideas to keep toddlers entertained. If you read my blog you will see that I also have a passion for food and with a partner who is a personal trainer we are big on getting out and about as a family. I look forward to meeting other parents through this blog and sharing ideas, stories and some funny moments.
