Oh, the joys of having cute cuddly kids. Their sweet laugh, big smiles, watching them discover simple life things. Getting into everything. Opening and closing cabinets. Throwing things. Breaking things. Screaming. Crying. Yelling. Wait what was the main point again?

The actual main point of this blog: what’s more entertaining than reading about all the weird things kids have thrown down a toilet? In our opinion, nothing. Sit back and have a good chuckle while reading this blog post.

A toilet can be a weird concept to kids, and we get that. They want to explore the world and every little thing in it. And that may include throwing some of your really important things down the big fun hole with the water in it and the lid that slams shut.

Here’s a list of weird and panic-inducing items kids have thrown down the toilet:

  • A cell phone (rice fixed everything)
  • Car keys
  • Food and snacks
  • Diapers
  • Toys
  • Pets (creating an at-home jacuzzi for your pet!)
  • Money
  • A watch
  • Wedding rings

It’s important to explain to all members of your household that only toilet paper goes into the toilet.
