We all know how quickly children can loose interest when it comes to toys. However, there is a way to keep toys fresh like a few from Christmas without spending extra money for constantly replacing them.
Do try to box some of those toys up and hide them for a while. Though this may sound mean, but you are not depriving anything to those very young children in the least. Instead, they will focus on the ones before them and forget about what is no longer there.
Once you notice their interest is waning in their current selection, then it is the perfect time to pull out that stash of toys.
Make it fun for them and wrap up that box with a pretty gift wrap or even take apart a brown grocery bag for them to unwrap when you present it like another gift. Watch the excitement on their little faces as they peel away that paper and peer into yet another gift.
Another inexpensive way for those little ones to have fun is saving any big box for them to play in. Allow them to explore the interior and use it to hide or sit in. Watch them play with that box for hours while suddenly neglecting those toys. Those faces will light up as you open up another avenue for them to use their imagination.
I dare you to try this with your own very young children. You will save yourself some money and also multiple their happiness with fresh fun and possibilities!
