The funniest was one time I put her down, went in to check on her about half an hour later and she was fast asleep with a doll pram on the bed :o She'd gotten out of bed, got the pram, put it on the bed, got into bed and tucked herself back in, then gone to sleep! Cheeky monkey! :lol:
Ohhh OP, the other night when I went to check on her she had her step in under the covers! I asked her why...her reply? *So I can put my feet on them mum, silly mum* :doh::
Lol DS2 likes to choose a new item to take down each night. Tonight's is the golf club & a book which he then sleeps on. Always in his cot are a huge iggle piggle, 4 small soft toys, a large kangaroo, tweety & my bear from when I was little. If we take any out he'll call us back until they are all where they should be. I don't know how he fits in :)
The best one for me was checking on DD one night at around that age, only to find the usual collection of stuffed toys and random objects but no DD or doona. She'd gotten uncomfortable sleeping on her pile of treasures so pulled out her flip out couch and curled up on it *underneath* the bed with her favourite pink ted with just her legs sticking out. Strange child....
I must be mean.... I've always told DSD that, no... she can't have every teddy in her bed, lying on her pillow.... she can have one.... yes... one....
most recently it has been.... sorry my dear, you are getting too big to leave your teddys and spare pillow and clothes and skipping rope and numerous other items on the end of the bed.... they need to go away or on the floor.....
yep.... I am again, officially, the evil stepmother....!! ;)
nawwww get yr wicked on myturn! hehehe:
as a kid I can't remember being allowed to take toys to bed either.
Puppies and wallabies were a different story however! at least Miss H toys don't poo or wee everywhere! :rofl:
My DD1 sleeps under her bed all the time! It's the cutest thing, not sure it's the best for her back, but she is choosing it so it can't feel too bad.
I have found in seperate occasions one of my shoes and a pair of kitchen tongs... I have no idea how he got them or got them in his cot..
Also he has a ride on plastic Chugginton with a storage space under the seat. occasionally he will open in while playing and pull out something like a watermelon rind or a partially eaten peice of jam on toast! *cue the jumping off the couch saying "yukky nooooooooooooo"
I found a lump of rissole in mine last night..does that count?! Lol
Back in the day DS was the bed stasher. We'd find all sorts of really hard plastic toys from transformers to cars to you name it. I used to say it was like a dragon sleeping on his hoard of gold. I still don't understand how bumblebee is in anyway shape or form comfortable to sleep with. Let alone Thomas and all his friends. These days he hides his washing I his bed so he doesn't have to take it to the laundry. I generally do a search before bed. One day I found all his neatly folded washing under his doona at the end of the bed (that he was supposed to put away). He tried to reason with me saying it stops him from messing up his drawers and his feet don't reach them so it stay neat. Um no. So sad to say. Once a bed hoarder always a bed hoarder ;)
DD on the other hand was a bit of a neat freak. Her place of stashing was her bedside table and there would be a place for everything. And if something she wanted wasn't there it was panic stations and she wouldn't sleep till it was relocated and in its spot.
Although she was a food hoarder... In her mouth. I won't go there though. It's too gross and I'm sure you want to keep your breakfast down ;)
Well it is getting colder ss! Maybe they are onto something! ....nomnomnom midnight snack anyone??:
Thank you Rouge ... thank you!:
The funniest thing I ever saw was a bed hoarder who obviously woke up uncomfortable and took their pillow and slept on the floor!
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.
DS loves trains! He loves all the train tv shows (not that he's allowed to watch much tv) and he loves watching real trains.
When we take him on the train he clutches his train ticket so tightly :-)
He sometimes takes them to bed too!
Very entertaining! So glad DS isn't the only one.
The four stuffed teddies are a given, plus blankie too. And then there's the revolving parade of whatever else takes his fancy at the time. We've had, among other things...kitchen tongs, Chux wipes, a screwdriver, a plastic bat, a pair of socks, a 'door snake', DH's hard hat and assorted toys (plastic bat toy, small cars, books etc). It's easier not to argue and just remove the sharp/dangerous stuff after he's asleep.
FWIW, when I was little I used to have up to 20 dolls/stuffed toys in my bed every night. Some were toddler sized and they ALL had to share my pillow, sheets and quilt. When I grew too big to fit them all in at once, I made a 'roster' and rotated them!
Yesterday I went to wake DD1 from her nap and she was asleep with her gumboots on! She'd gotten them out of her wardrobe after I'd put her down and then fallen asleep - under the sheets and all! :lol:
nawwwww moment!:
Its always a full house in my DDs' beds with a minimum of four pillows and three cushions, a soft princess doll, "Milo" (if any of you have read the book Milo Amadillo - my Mum knitted the girls one each), Jemima for DD2 and Humpty for DD1. They each have an enormous stuffed horse that's about a metre long and tall that is on the bed. Then its changeable as to who/what gets included - anything from jewellery boxes and snow globes to barbies, cars, trains, stuffed toys etc. They each have a queen size bed but they're always chokkas.
DD1 came into our bed the other night complaining that there wasn't enough room in her bed. Hmmmm. Funny that.
OK so I was thinking, "gee my kids have never done stuff like that..." then I went to check DS' bed.....found a flashing fairy wand and a wheeled suitcase packed with dolls clothes lol.

:ROFL::ROFL::ROFL:
ohhh this thread is making me laugh and feel good!
Thanks for sharing guys!
This thread is awesome! It makes me excited for when DD gets older and we can experience this too lol
I was reading this thread earlier and thinking ," My son doesn't take much to bed." He has three soft toys (Paddington, Monkey and Humpty) and occasionally a train.
Tonight, as if he knew, he insisted ob taking a fairly large bead maze with him.
These kids crack me up.

1 alien form toy story stuffed toy
1 Wags the dog
1 santa soft toy
1 highland cow soft toy
until a few months ago was also a copy of his party invite for his buzz party he had last year but it got ripped LOL
Also 2 weeks ago he was screaming 1 night after I put him to bed and I went to see what was wrong and he gave me a blue penguin and told me to "take it to lounge its sick and cant stay here LOL" poor penguin never been invited back since.
All of these must be in specific places around him and if you even dream of forgetting 1 he knows and asks for it!!
Also regularly have other toys like trains and trucks in bed with him 2.
DS2 Must have pillow
Must have 4 blankets with wiggles 1 on top (he has these off within 10 mins of falling asleep and to recover him wakes him up)
Must have CD player on with accoustic lullabys
1 stuffed penguin
1 seahorse like his brothers.
ME I just want space with no child in bed for a whole night!
At my sister's house tonight, so DD went to sleep in sister's bed without her usual plethora of toys. But she still managed to take with her one of her beloved Miffys (yellow, JIC you're wondering), a Disney Fairies torch and a calculator... all safely contained in a little zippered case thing :lol:
okay tonight it was ALL her pencils and markers as well as colouring books!
I'm pretty much just waiting to find her drum kit in bed with her!
:rofl: these are too funny!
Tonight I was reminded that I'm always surprised if I find Moo in his bed...he is usually on the floor curled up under his bed! Now he has a different bed that he can't fit under he just lays next to it :lol:
