Puzzled




I'm not sure who thought this puzzle was a good idea. We call it the "teach your child how to break through any lock puzzle". It has a variety of real metal locks that kids usually can't open, and it gives them the opportunity to work on them until they get it right. It came in a bag of puzzles from Goodwill and of course it's Eli's favorite. He hasn't figured out how to open any of the locks yet, and I'm contemplating putting it away before he does. If he masters these six locks it will really limit our options for keeping him in a room, or out of cupboards.

Yeah, I think that one gets 1st place for Worst Baby Toy Ever! Though, I kind of think the wood blocks with 3" screws sticking out of it and loose washers (that were the toy of choice in Jr. Nursery last year) were in close Second...

I remember the Jr. Nursery had a variety of hazardous toys, didn't they also let the kids play with dry beans?
