Throw a toy, it's gone for the day.

Purposely stepping on a toy, it's gone for the day.

Fighting over a toy, it's gone for the day.

On the very first time ever doing any of the above, they are warned what will happen if they ever do it again. Second time ever, it's gone. It will return the next day.

Yes, I have had ALL my toys put up by the end of the day. It's only happened once, but now that I have two boys (both 2.5years), losing toys is a daily occurrence. These kids are smart enough to know the rules here, and if they break them, they lose toys.

I cannot risk another child being hurt because one child was not following the rules.
