When your baby is tiny, the toys are tiny. When your baby is big the toys take over your house, eat whatever is left of your remaining shred of adult-focused style and stand up in the middle of your den screaming WE WILL NEVER BE STOPPED!
Seriously. It is ridiculous.
Not only do the toys take on the personality of a flame-tongued dragon, but no matter what your toy budget is, your kids will play with no more than 40% of what you buy. The rest will just sit here. There. Everywhere. You cannot escape the my kid will not play with you, but I cannot do anything with you, since I just threw away this month's rent on you, dust-collecting, decor-busting toys.
Baby Plays is the brilliant answer. Brilliant! They send you the toys of your choosing, and when you are done with them you can SEND THEM BACK. You pick how many, you select how often. They'll even send toys to your mother's for your vacation. (Well, more accurately described as your "family visit.") Now I know what you are thinking: Has this woman been living under a rock? Has she not heard of that teeny little insignificant thing known as the IMPENDING SWINE FLU PANDEMIC THAT WILL KILL US ALL?
I'm a little OCD when it comes to my kids, and I can tell you that I would serve meals on these toys. They arrive beyond clean, in excellent condition, and individually shrink-wrapped. Seriously. It is ridiculous.
