A hole in the wall

The boys have had a hole in their bedroom wall for over a year now.  There was no door stopper on their door and the knob went right through the wall behind it.  We slowly began noticing that Ben's massive hot wheels collection was beginning to dwindle.  Many other toys had gone missing too.  Hmmmm, I wonder where they could have gone?  Yep, every time they played in that bedroom, the little kids were dropping toys down into the wall.  One of the big girls stuck their hand in at one point and was actually able to start pulling toys out.  The wall was actually full, between the studs, up to the hole!  We finally got around to patching the hole in the wall.  An extra hole needed to be cut at the bottom first to get everything out.  Ben was very excited to get his cars back.

  1. Oh no! Same thing happened in our sons room and we have not fixed it yet. It never occurred to me to check if someone dropped something down!

  2. Mandy, that is just too tempting for my kids to resist, LOL. They play in the boys' room a lot since it is right off of our kitchen and easy to contain them in and keep an eye on them.
