    Default The case of the missing juice cup......

    Mindee had it at 4.45pm.
    5.00pm mum turns up to collect.
    No juice cup!
    I have turned the house upside down looking for it. There is no way it has left this house!

    I've pretended to be a 2yo and walked round the house looking in all the random places, but still not found it!
    Someone help me it's driving me crazy

    I would try these places...

    1 - Play kitchen oven
    2 - Inside ride ons
    3 - Back in the kitchen cupboard with all the clean ones
    4 - In the shoe rack?

    Good luck!!!

    One of my mindees hid their cup in the basket under my MacLaren buggy!

    Or try in a toy buggy/cot maybe.

    The bin was a favourite when my son was little!

    Last time a lo lost something here I found it in my washing basket which is in a room with a stair gate on- she must have thrown it over and straight in I never thought of looking there. Not that it's helpful at all but I'd suggest looking in ridiculous places like up really high in case it was thrown?!

    The children are often the best at finding things, I lost an astronaut yesterday, searched everywhere when they were asleep. Told the two and a half year old that I couldn't find it later, he fetched it from a ledge ( In full view) straight away!!

    ......I think I was too busy looking in hideaway places!

    One of my los,has a little stuffed rabbit she brings. I often can't find it at home time but she knows where it is. Often stuffed into the smallest space. At the moment little rabbit is into driving things

    I have managed to lose the sugar tin. Don't ask me where I have put it
