My son has a tendency to hold onto "treats" for quite some time before actually eating them. He rarely gets sweet stuff, so I think he likes to make it last, hehe. One night he wanted to have one of the apricot balls my Mum had brought over. They are basically made out of dried apricot, condensed milk and dessicated coconut. I gave him half of one and he insisted on holding it while we did his bedroom routine. Then he took it to bed. I assumed he would eat it when I left the room. Wrong! I went in later to check on him and had to removed the sticky apricot ball from his fingers and hair! Eww!
Removing playdoh from under his head was fun one night as well haha.
He used to like to choose a couple of toys to take to bed with him (usually small ones, but a huge toy or toy would occasionally get an invite). Luckily he's gotten out of that habit now and thebiggest problem we have is trying to keep him under a blanket with the colder weather approaching.
