[QUOTE=Heidi;161470]I think I"m pretty kid friendly, but I do have limits. I think it's partly just the particular group I have. By the time my kids were 15 or 16 months old, I could trust them with crayons and paper, drilling "we only color on the paper" into their heads, and they did fine. I don't think any of mine ever colored on a wall or a book. I have 4 kids (3 ft & 1 pt) from one family, and they are a wild bunch. I don't mind exploring, learning, etc. But, for the most part, toys are ignored, and I spend most of my time redirecting, even the oldest 2 (4 and 3). My 21 mo from another family I could probably (but wouldn't of course!), leave in the whole house alone all day, and it wouldn't occurr to him to push around furniture, climb up on a shelf, or otherwise trash the place. He would drive cars around all day if they (the other kids) let him.[/QUOTE]
