Arran aged 21 months

Post by Corm »

Has managed to unscrew two screws with a proper screwdriver from the back of "Gwangags" TV to which all he could say was "Oh no!" and when told he shouldnt do it cause it was dangerous proptly told us "I know". Later on he decided it was time for some modern art courtsey of Mr Crayola and my sitting room walls, expensive hard wood flooring and the best bit "Oh no!" the marble tiles in the kitchen. Anyone know how to get wax crayon off of Marble without damaging it? There is nothing on google... *sobs*

You need to either use a cloth soaked in hot water, or there's stuff called "Sticky Stuff Remover", which you can get from Lakeland on George Street.

You could also look at either an iron, with a damp cloth, or one of those steam wallpaper removers.

Apart from your wallpaper, which is probably ducked.

Oh, and get used to it - kids, like cats, are the gods ways of telling you your house is too nice.

Indeed Boab, turns out according to Susies dad who inexplicably left a tv on the floor of the sitting room with a full open tool box and a 21 month old kid, that the screws were loose anyway, even still...

We got a JML thing thats similar to that sticky stuff remover Hav. Called the JML Magic Eraser, seems to do the trick.

Just you wait till he finds the knife drawer, he'll be after your tags.

Well he has already got a head shot or 10 with this http://shop.lego.com/en-GB/Agent-Mater- ... rs-ByTheme but I *think* I have finally managed to get him to shoot the targets (and the TV, Plants, Light, Pictures...) and not people. *sighs*

We took him to the newly refurbed museum today, and he was good as gold and loved all the "stuff" he could press and touch, was even working the interactive display things, moving it around and opening and closing the windows, not that he was paying any attention to the info... I can see we will be going there a lot.
