To expect them not to pull out EVERY single book, puzzle, bin, toy 100 times a day? I keep trying to explain to him only 1, and get him to pick one, and then put the rest back with my help of course.

But I'm finding, he doesn't even play, or look at the stuff he pulls out, it's just a pull and drop, pull and drop, pull and drop.

It's wearing on me. I KNOW he knows he's not allowed to do this, because he will run away when I look at him (it's pretty cute the way he does it).

Any suggestions on how to approach this with a not quite 2 yr old? I've tried many ways of saying it like "only 1 at a time ok" and "oh lets put these back if you're not playing with them" etc.
