going in the frige
climbing on the worktops
turning the washing machine off
emptying the cutlery drawer
turning the tumble on
going in the freezer
tipping the bin over
clinmbing on the kitchen table
turning the tv off
knocking the lamp over
moving the chairs
playing with the DVDs
playing with the videa
removing the sky card
pouring thier juice on the sofa
yanking on the curtains
removing the pipe from the hoover
banging the walls and denting them


And thats just what they do downstairs, the only thing that stays in its place are the toys

Give large rewards of chocalate for whoever wins 'sleeping lions' - but tell them it's only valid if they lay still for at least half an hour!

Alternatively...

Lock them outside

Buy them a PS2

Only joking!

one of mine unplugged the freezer the other day (DH went nuts and frightened them so much neither would admit to it !).

Not sure the answer to the orignal question - but mine are 3.75 and have long periods when they are safe to be left playing - but then they revert - after lulling me into a false sense of security

My DTs will be 3 in Dec too, but no helpful suggestions I'm afraid! Boys or girls?
