I have a 15 month old DS who is in love with the toilet paper roll. I have resorted to just shutting the bathroom doors to keep him out of there, because you know it is only a matter of time before he finds the toilet. So my question is this, when he has managed to unroll a WHOLE roll of toilet paper, would you roll it back up and use it any way or throw the whole thing in the trash and get a new one?
Thanks Ladies, I am glad that I am not the only one that has rerolled or wadded it up and still used it. Emily S.....I had to laugh because I went through that as well. My DS threw a brand new roll from the cupboard in their and I debated as to whether to use it or not (we tossed that one).
P.S.--LOL I think we will all have to say don't tell my mother that I am doing this.
Mollie N. and Marda P.---those are great suggestions to look into to make sure that if the door happens to get left open (which happens a lot with 8 other people using the bathroom).
I got really sick once and let the baby pull tissues out of the box and put them back in for an entire afternoon so I could sleep. We used them, too.
Yep I have just rolled it back up;) My kids have done it a few times TP is pricey and it's not like the cat did it and took a nap on it.
use it. my sweet babies hands didn't sully it.
I always put the toilet paper on with the paper out the bottom. This way they can't just sit there and spin it and have all the toilet paper come unrolled. But yes, if my daughter unrolled the whole thing, I would roll it back up and use it. We always kept bathroom doors closed until we started potty training.
I don't throw it away :) As long as the floor was clean and the roll was just unraveled no biggie :)
Yes I reuse it. My daughter went through this (she is 2 now). I took all the TP rolls off their hangers and put them up on a shelf or counter where she did not notice them. Now she does not do this anymore (knock on wood)!
I roll it back up and use it. My son does that now. My other kids all did this too.
Heck yes, I'd use it!
Toilet paper is expensive!
A few weeks back my son threw a brand new roll in the toilet.
I gotta admit I stood there for a few minutes trying to think of how I could salvage it. Lol. Of course I had to toss it. :(
Use but I don't have the time to roll it back up. I just wad it up and put it on the shelf next to the potty and we use it until it is gone.
I have. Don't tell my husband...or my mom...
Roll it back up and give it to him to play with.
Then find a stashing place that everyone else knows about (within reach of the toilet) and keep your roll "empty" for now!
roll it back up and put a long rubber band on it(cut and tie inside the roll) so hopefully he can't figure it out.
This has happened to me. I bunched it up and set it on top of the toilet tank and used it.
My mother had a trick that helped to prevent my brothers from unrolling the toilet paper. Put the roll on the roller with the paper turning to the back of the position. That way when baby pats the roll it just goes round and round without the paper unrolling.
Roll it back up and use it.
put the next roll on top of the toilet tank where baby can't reach it.
IF this had happened, I would have rolled it back up, but we always kept the bathroom door closed when our daughter was not potty training.
I'd use it but I probably wouldn't put it out there for guests to use.
