Winning the "Pick Things Up for Me, Daddy" Game

I guess my daughter is still too young to intentionally drop things on the floor so she can watch me pick them up, but I think I'll try an ounce of prevention.

I picked up a suction-cup hook from Daiso meant for hanging your loofah in the shower. I replaced the hook with a length of ribbon and a small carabiner. The suction cup sticks to the surface of her high-chair and the carabiner can clip to most of her toys.




I think I might cut the ribbon to be a bit shorter so that:

  • Toys don't fall off the edge of the chair at all
  • the ribbon presents less of a strangulation hazard.

Or maybe I'll try a slip-knot so I can adjust the length as needed.
