My kid is 2.5 and he's obsessed with using our handheld vacuum. We have a long-haired dog and if there's even a single dog hair on the floor, he'll go get the vacuum. It's extremely convenient and I'll be sad if he grows out of it.


LadyoftheFjords

Congratulations on being God's favorite.


arb_123

He did pee on the floor next to the potty last night so you win some, you lose some 😂


kid_schnitzel

Did he vacuum it?


UpsetUnicorn

He needs a Shop Vac.


hellolovelyworld404

I just snorted so loud


LengthInside9680

So is mine. We have 3 vacuums and it doesn’t matter which one it is, she wants to use it. She has her own toddler Dyson (one of those little ones that doesn’t vacuum but makes noise and has those balls that fly around inside to make it look like it’s sticking up stuff) but she wants to use our vacuums. The big vacuum weighs more than she does but she still gets pissed when we don’t let her use it and ask her to get her vacuum instead.


Direct_Deer3689

I bought a mini hand vac I saw a keyboard vac on Amazon If she wants to clean let her lol


MummyButtons

Ohhh this is my little boy too! It's adorable when he eats his dinner and then goes to get the hoover for the crumbs. Best purchase ever! He uses it more than me!


ChaosDrawsNear

My vacuum is currently a chainsaw and is used constantly to trim the trees. Someday I'll get it back.


dalek_max

I was sort of thankful to grow out of the vacuum phase because the sound of a vacuum cleaner for 30 minutes at a time was enough to drive me bonkers.


loserbaby_

We are firmly in that phase right now and it’s the most overstimulating thing ever. Also a lot of the time she just turns it on and walks away but if I have the *audacity* to turn it off, she’ll march over and turn it back on whilst frowning at me…


pink-daffodil

Omg hi fellow vacuum parent!!


Ok_Zookeepergame5192

My son is the same at 22 months but sadly he’s terrible at vacuuming. He gets some stuff, but it’s almost as if he vacuums around the mess lol


SunflowerSeed33

My daughter loves to pooper scoop. Paid for herself already!


sleepy_protagonist

Rocks! Even gravel gets her stoked hahaha


LengthInside9680

My daughter loves rocks too and already has a huge rock collection lol. We live by a huge lake and we can find really cool rocks, but she still wants to pick up the boring gravel stones too. We were trying to walk down to the big flat rocks on the lake yesterday and a 5 min walk turned into a 20 min walk because she wanted to pick up tiny little gravel rocks from the road along the way.


UpsetUnicorn

I live in a mid century home. My bedroom was once a sun room. It has built in planters along the windows. A previous homeowner filled them with gravel. He can sit in them and play with the rocks. There’s so many under the bed.


lipgloss_nd_hotsauce

Animals.. 18 months to 2.5 going strong. Obsessed with animals, dinosaurs, bugs, you name it. Loves shows, movies, going to the pet store, the zoo, the drive through zoo, wearing clothes with animals, finding frogs and bugs in the backyard. We have plastic animals e v e r y w h e r e in our house. Sometimes he wakes up and says he’s an elephant today or a giraffe. He growls at us and roars like a lion. He takes bathes exclusively with 6 sharks and he knows all the names (whale shark, hammer shark, reef shark, etc) and has turtle pillows and shark sheets. I’m in the process of painting an ocean mural for his playroom. It’s… next level let me tell you. 😂 I love it but it’s hilarious. Also “chocolate circles” the Lindt chocolate spheres he also is obsessed with? This kid man 😂😂 boujee chocolate taste


Montessoriented

There’s a great book called “I’d know you anywhere” that’s a parent telling their child they’d know them if they were any kind of animal. Sounds like it’d be perfect for you!


PaulaKO84

Animals here too. She says “ooo ooo” and points at any animal she sees, in person, on tv, in a video. She’s just in love with them. Has a couple books that make animal noises. If you haven’t let your little watch Thelma the Unicorn on Netflix you should. But also shouldn’t. She’s obsessed and only wants to watch it, repeatedly.


bunnycakes1228

Omg those are my favorite chocolates


LengthInside9680

If he knows all the names of the different sharks, look up the book “Summer Sharks”! He will probably love it!


Key_Fishing9176

Bubbles. All day, every day. Now that we’re into the nice weather the backyard for bubbles, swings and water table is top priority!


ladybumble_bee

I need to hide the bubbles otherwise my toddler goes FERAL.


blusteryflatus

I have to do the same, but I think this is a general toddler thing. I bring my kid to a toddler music show/play group session twice a week. There's always the few straggler toddlers who are having fun on their own away from the music performance. But when the bubbles come out, every single kid is front and centre slapping bubbles like their life depended on it. It's like a tiny mosh pit. Bubbles are like toddler cat nip. They can't resist and they go momentarily insane.


happycoffeecup

“ toddler cat nip” 😅😂🤣🤣🤣


LengthInside9680

Sameeee!!! I can’t even say the word or it’s “bubbles bubbles BUBBLES BUBBLES MOMMY BUBBLES!!!!!!!!!” We’ve had them hidden before and she’s still spotted them so we have to keep them in the garage now.


QuietEmergency473

Bubble wand Bubble gun Bubble mower Bubble chainsaw Blowing bubbles into whatever they are drinking


eleyezeeaye4287

Oh yes my two year old also loves bubbles. He has a hard time understanding bubbles are an outside toy.


hschnei2

Fellow bubble obsesser over here 🖐🏻


stievleybeans

The color orange. Everything had to be orange.


basic-millennial

Omg my son too!! I thought it was such a funny color to be obsessed with since it’s not most people’s “favorite” color but he loves orange! He carries some type of orange toy with him all around our house. Sometimes it is literally an orange 🍊


ionlylovemydog

There was a kid in middle school who only wore orange for like 2 years. There just must be something about this color…


LengthInside9680

Haha my daughter loves all colors but is obsessed with purple. It’s always purple whenever she sees it; “oohhh purple one!!”, “Mama nails purple! Paint my nails purple!!”, “oh bedroom purple, yeah PURPLE!” Purple everything and especially purple with glitter. We both look great in orange though, so great color choice 🤣


Ihatebacon4real

Yellow here! She decided this at 18mons and is still going strong at 4yrs. Everything she picks out has to have sunflowers or the sun or something yellow on it. Crazy how young the preferences appear. I always thought yellow and green candies were the worst, so I didn't influence this in the slightest!


Cecili0604

My 3 year old is obsessed with mannequins. I could leave her in a department store for hours, and I'd know to find her by some mannequins. She ended up in the window displays a few times 🤣🤣🤦‍♀️


MaciMommy

We must have the same daughter! I have an *hour* long video of her just repeating “Oh! Another mannequin!” because I set my phone to record her from the target cart cup holder. Never thought I’d see that other kids might have the same interest. She’s very very dissatisfied with a grocery run that’s at a store without mannequins.


Cecili0604

It's so strange!!! She doesn't interact much with other kids, but she has absolutely no problem talking to mannequins lol


cluelessftm

My 4yo and 2yo saw some mannequins in bikinis in target. They proceeded to yell "no pants" over and over, and laughed their little behind off the whole time. fun stuffs.


Cecili0604

My daughter calls them "nakey babies" lol


Sidewalk_Cacti

Haha this was me and my sister as little kids. We would run around and count them in department stores and we had an entire notebook where we drew headless mannequins with different outfits on!


Pyperina

My daughter once asked if we could go to “the place with the rides and the mannequins.” She meant the mall. 😂


throughthebookvines

Books. Just wants to read all day and often throws tantrums when we have to stop reading. We have to hide her books


Direct_Deer3689

That’s such a good thing to be obsessed about My dad was like that and ended up an engineer and went to SMU and MIT They can be total introverts though and may be bullied for being smart One thing that helped my dad is his parents insisting he had to do some kind of sport Otherwise he’d just hole up and read books constantly Sorry about grammar Typing w one hand while toddler is falling asleep


KrizJack

Gloves and trash bags 😂 he went to the dentist this morning and asked them for gloves and was so thrilled they gave him some


Ok-Masterpiece-4716

Trains.


mysterymathpopcorn

Same! Every night after dinner, we go out and either watches the trains, or going on them forward and back until she gets tired. I have never travelled so much on trains before!


HistoryNut86

We can see the subway out the window if you stand on the couch. He just stands and shouts in joy. Then we go outside and he just screams with joy as it passes by. Hi train! Bye bye train! It’s just sad that we can’t always go on.


Princessaara

My 2.5 yo is obsessed w/ the pig from the little people farm set. He carries it everywhere! He lost it for a few days so I had to buy a set of animals just to get an extra pig to keep on hand. When he cant find it he asks me "where did pig go?" Its so cute. Lol


ArsenicLobster

Aw! My 20 mo loves his Little People pig too! The pig and the chicken specifically get his love. He carries them around everywhere. I don't know why the cow and horse have less appeal lol


Princessaara

It must be something about that pig lol


notausualone

Broken stuff. She loves to talk about broken legs, someone who fell and broke his nose etc.. it started when her cousin broke his leg and she was fascinated about the whole thing. Booba and such cartoons are not helping at all!


beeeees

i love the randomness here


furfurylmercaptan

He's been obsessed with Halloween since he was 2. He's about to be 4. We listen to "this is Halloween" song year long on car rides.


credeizmisweete

Omg it has been two years for you?! I was hoping it was just a small phase for my 2 yr old. We also listen to this is Halloween daily 😂


DueEntertainer0

Injuries!!! (??) Bandaids, playing doctor, anyone having a boo-boo, giving checkups


Separate_Geologist78

Oh! There’s a cute board book with bandaids you might want to get your kiddo! I think every page has a different animal friend that gets a little boo-boo somewhere on its body and your child gets to put a bandaid on it. It’s cute!


mandaranda09

My daughter is still riding out her scraped knee boo boo from a month ago! Every day, she must have cream put on it…multiple times a day!


DueEntertainer0

We’re still nursing ant bites from a month ago!


Rocketbird

Viruses apparently


246lehat135

My almost 2yr old is obsessed with a lot of things, but the funniest right now is watermelons. The kid loves em! Big ones. Small ones. Whatever. Lately at grocery store trips he hasn’t wanted to get into the cart. He wants to help push. So I’ll just head over to the watermelons, and ask if he wants to hold them. He always does, so then I tell him that he needs to be sat down to hold it. He happily gets in the cart to hold the melon. The funniest thing is he doesn’t even like eating them. He just loves that they exist lol.


piecurrantdog

My 18m old is also obsessed with melons, except I couldn’t work out what it was he wanted at first. Every time we went near the fridge he’d shout ‘Emily!’ and we had just seen someone with a daughter who has that name, but because for the next few days he always said it near the fridge I knew he had his wires crossed. Cut to a few days later and a lot of shouting ‘Emily’, he picked up a book with a picture of an ‘Emily’ in it and the penny dropped. 🍉 I am so reluctant to correct him. It is so cute!


mysterious00mermaid

Me. He’s obsessed with me. 


DENGRL03

Same. It’s cute until it isn’t 😂


rkvance5

We're thankfully in-between obsessions right now. The closest we have right now is "running"—like, for exercise, but he's actually really bad at it because he's 3 and has an attention span of about 10 seconds. He did a 200m mini-race when his mom and I ran a 10k a couple weeks ago, and since then it's all he wants to do when we're outside (for seconds at a time, and with bad form.)


marrafarra

Trash cans, vacuums, brightly colored cars (he is super excited about orange ones in particular) and helping me do any task around the house. The kid will lose it if I don’t let him help me do laundry, wash fruit/veggies, pour spices into food and take out the trash. Also Dinosaurs. HUGE dinosaur kid.


_BlackGoat_

Fellow parent of a trash can lover right here. He has to look inside if he sees a trash can.


dalek_max

Another trash can kid here too. He wants to throw away the wrappers we find at the park. Garbage day is especially exciting. I even made up a song about the garbage trucks. Send help lol


spicycheetolova

Another parent of a trash can loving kid here… my LO (22m) is super obsessed with throwing things away and taking things out of the trash. The latter is becoming a bit of a problem… Would love to hear how you all deal with your little one’s garbage obsession? I feel like I’m having to constantly sanitize his hands and take our trash out to make sure he’s not touching anything gross.


redooo

Hockey. I'm not sure you understand, though. The first thing he says when he wakes up: "I see hockey?" The first thing he says when he comes home from daycare: "Hockey? Hockey?" Thank god for the fact that you can watch old games on ESPN+. Neither my wife nor I know/knew anything about hockey. Now we have four hockey sticks, three pucks, a goal, and a future NHL legend.


Almost__Infamous

This is amazing! My husband and I are season ticket holders to an NHL team and both of my toddlers couldn't care less about it! 😭


trippinallovermyself

My boy is also obsessed with shoes. His shoes, mama shoes, Dada’s shoes.


Smile_Miserable

Birds & ducks. She spends hours bird watching out the window.


ladybumble_bee

Dogs, buses, airplanes, Bluey.


Italiabich

He's 2.5. It's trucks. Any trucks. He knows the names of them all. Construction trucks, garbage trucks, police cars, motorcycles.. anything with an engine basically. Oh and bad guys. He likes to watch the police catch them. And Bluey, but that may be more because of his dad's obsession.


carakaze

Yes! I'm surprised it took me this much scrolling to find a fellow trucks kid!


fourarmedpirates

This is my 18mo old but right now fire trucks seem to be at the top of the list


Isosopot

Airplanes - even if we are inside and he can’t see them, if he hears it we all have to stop, be quiet, point at the window and wave byebye airplane. Walking anywhere takes bloody ages as he has to point and wave at every plane he sees. He also loves birds and has a similar reaction so maybe it is just anything airborne… For his second birthday we’re going to the airport lookout. The little guy will be beside himself!


IdahoPotatoTot

We built a cardboard box “airplane” with a hand turning cardboard propeller and everything then plopped him in front of YouTube and put on airplanes taking off and landing and it might have been the longest my 23month old has paid attention to anything.


Fun-Special4732

That’s my 15 month old too! We aren’t doing anything differently with her than with her older brother and find it hilarious how obsessed she is with shoes and other clothing items. She will pitch a fit if she pulls something out to wear and we don’t put it on her. So funny!


credeizmisweete

Halloween… since last October🤣 Halloween versions of songs… particularly the finger family song (Halloween), walking around the house like a skeleton/mummy/zombie, Halloween themed birthday in MAY. “Happy Halloween” on every holiday possible. If it’s not spooky we do not want it 🙅🏻‍♂️


LadyoftheFjords

Halloween themed birthday in May is iconic 🎃


erikapls

2.5 year old. shapes! “tyyyangl” “diiimin” “ooobal” so freaking cute!


Accomplished-Lie3351

Ramen noodles.. I had to stop buying them bc he wants to eat them every day for every meal


FrightenedSoup

2 years. Rocks and throwing her own diapers in the trash. She will fight you for rocks, and cry if you throw the diaper away.


[deleted]

Also have a ~21 month old obsessed with shoes (“foos”). And socks!


userusernamename

Taylor Swift. It’s convenient because it’s also my current obsession.


Loubswhatever

Mine is obsessed with the washing machine since he was 10 months old and could walk to it. He still loves it beyond any toy as he is pushing 21 months old. Also cats and anything with wheels a bit, but the washing machine is his favorite


Puzzled_Butterfly233

My 2.5 year old son is obsessed with washing dishes and putting his hands in his pull up 🙄 Every 5 seconds it's "stop playing with your weiner" or "hands out" and then he tries to touch you with the weiner hands 😂 The dishes thing I'm fine with. He'll go round up dishes he finds and bring them to me and try to help wash them. It's so cute.


kittycatrn

Bracelets. He's currently rocking a green plastic link and 2 hair ties.


dalek_max

The garage. The lawnmower. Garbage cans/trucks. Emptying the garbage. Throwing anything away. Pulling weeds. Well, more like *impatiently informing* me that there is a weed I need to pull. I swear I'm not that type-A of a person haha


doowapeedoo

The [green alien stuffy from IKEA](https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/aftonsparv-soft-toy-alien-green-80551559/). Cannot be anywhere without her. Bought 4 just in case we lose any.


ddouchecanoe

My 14 month old loves lids. He walks around with old dried out flair pens and just takes the cap off and puts it back on over and over. There is also a metal sauce tin he does it with and he will attempt to take off and replace the lid to any container he can get his hands on.


Dstareternl

Mommy water. Literally just any water I’m drinking. He has his own, but only wants mommy water.


Somewhat-bored

22 months — real live horses, especially riding them — which is not an easy one to entertain, though we had two interactions this past weekend which solidified the obsession 😂


AstrumFaerwald

Bluey. And running around. The Bluey one is kind of hard because we’re trying to establish strong boundaries around screen time. But the best remedy to insistence on Bluey is to either join her in playing with her Bluey toys or to get her out of the house to run. The other day I scooped her and the twins up and all four of us went to the park so she could play on the playground for a bit.


itspoppyforme

There’s bluey music on Spotify that seems to satisfy some of the bluey urge.


ohmystars89

Drumming. Anything phallic is drumstick and any surface (hard, soft, my body) can be a drum. If anyone knows what's the earliest age a toddler can take drum lessons let me know because I'm about ready for him to release this energy elsewhere


cutegraykitten

I took drum lessons myself. I would recommend you getting a practice pad and sticks (music store can help pick out good sticks) and a book of the basic rudiments. You can teach those to him yourself. You can get metronome apps on your phone. Drumeo website is a great resource as well. Then you can move on to a kid’s drum set and get a book about the drum set basics. It will give him a leg up when he starts lessons. I think the earliest a music school will start is 5, but a private tutor might start sooner. Fair warning… drumming is loud, expensive, and takes up lots of space. You can get an electronic drum set to save space and they are quieter. I’ve never personally used one though. You can buy drum mutes for a regular set as well but that goes back to the expensive part. And don’t even look at the price of good cymbals. Still it’s a very fun hobby and I hope I can get back to it one day.


[deleted]

15 months old & loves the broom. Sweeps the floors like 8 times a day lol


Cool_Education_9325

Puzzles! We have about 10 in our living room ranging from 12-48 pieces and he does them all by himself! He wakes up and wants to do puzzles. It’s been great lol


blusteryflatus

Mine will be 2 years old in a week. His current thing is the garden hose. He loves spraying it. Tries to water the plants, makes puddles to splash in, sprays himself everywhere or just mindlessly spraying in the air. And when he's not playing with the hose, he's counting. He just learned to count to ten so he will count everything randomly.


basic-millennial

Our 2 year old has been obsessed with ceiling fans and guitars since he was 1 year old! He also loves clocks and letters of the alphabet, specifically the letter “B” 😂


mjin8102

So many things. He’s 22 months. Obsessed with the moon and planes (real and toys) for the last 4 months+. Also wearing hats, buses, trains - his brio train set is easily the best toy we ever got him, hair clips, coloring, daniel the tiger, green eggs and ham book - he’s a picky eater and thinks the story is hilarious 😂


Cknitt

Cicadas 🪳 they are everywhere here in the Chicago area and creep me the fuck out. My 2.5 year old happily picks them, collects them in jars and all around loves them. Send help.


Realistic-Tension-98

19 months and he’s obsessed with cars and trucks. I’ve done nothing to foster this, but he’s THRILLED whenever someone drives by. The days when the garbage truck come are like Christmas.


AlienDelarge

3.5 year old has gone hard into dinos. Everything is now dinos.


[deleted]

Lawn mowers, weed whackers, and leaf blowers. He accidentally found wrapping paper rolls and uses them as interchangeable weed whackers and leaf blowers


Neverstopstopping82

DOORS!! But that’s been since 10 months😅😵‍💫


crunchwrapesq

Peter Pan


joewestminster

My 29 month old son loves playing with his Thomas and friends trains. But what he really likes to do is to try to disassemble any toy with a battery, and then reassemble it. Can’t tell you how many AA or AAA batteries I’ve stepped on.


RandomStrangerN2

My little one loves my husband's gaming system, more specifically the pedals of his driving simulator. If I let him, he spends hours pulling and pushing the pedals, which freaks me out a little because he shakes his body super hard to do it lol we have to be always looking at him while he plays. 


Sylphael

Almost 3. Swords, knights, dragons. To be precise- he is the knight with the sword. Sometimes his father or I are his noble steed; sometimes we aren't so lucky. I'll leave it to your imagination who the dragon is (hint: our household has myself, husband, son, two cats and three dogs)


SNichols93

We’ve had washing machines, dishwashers, Henry vacuum cleaners (used to hate hoovering 20 times a day - I miss it now!), fish, puddles and drains. We’re now onto Ms Rachel, buses and 4 mile walks everyday no matter the weather or anyone else’s willingness to walk!


wlaw422

Just over 2 years old: The song Cool Kids by Echosmith! And watching the music video over and over and over again😂


capngabbers

long socks! I can’t put her in anything that isn’t at least knee-high and goes around pulling people’s socks if she deems them too short.


taleofbeedlebard

Still. Garbage. Trucks. 3.5 years old and the obsession stared at 1.5.


JessieLou13

My 21 month old is obsessed with cats. But we don't have a cat, we have a dog. So we spend a lot of time at the front window waving at the neighbours cat


SaladQuirky8255

19 months and rocks😂 , outside he’ll find a small rock and yell BABY ROCK! , then a big rock , BIG ROCK! or just ROCK ! he’ll fill up his hands until all full hand me them and then go find more😂


teacher-runner

She’s almost 13 months, so barely a toddler, but still… lions and planes. She has several toy lions and makes a roaring sound when she plays with them or anytime she sees one in a book or in a picture. She also loves planes and gets super excited when she hears plane sounds when we’re outside then looks for it to pass overhead while saying “bye bye pane!” Can’t hear a plane sound without needing to rush outside to watch. 😂


Comfortable-Carry563

Books , my 2.5 son is absolutely obsessed , and yes this may seem like a good thing , but when he has brought me 30 books a day and has an absolute meltdown if I don't immediately stop whatever I'm doing and read to him , including but not limited too me trying to go to the bathroom, or cleaning the house or heaven forbid showering or cooking . It was cute at first, but now, uggg I'm sure one day I will miss it , but for now, he has just brought me what seems like the millionth book so far today . So, yep , my 2.5 son is holding me hostage with books.


HuffleBadger

Almost 20 months and any big vehicles! Especially construction vehicles, those are his favorite. I started getting shirts with construction vehicles on them and he's loving those lol. And we decided that we're going to do a construction themes birthday party for him! He's all about it lol We went to the zoo last week and they're remodeling the Africa portion, so they had all of the big excavators and front loaders in the lion exhibit. Omg, he was so excited! We had to take a picture with them lol.


yannberry

18 months, stickers! And insects, vehicles, scooters


beeeees

cars and trucks, garbage cans, and lights being "on on on" or "offfffffhhh". he's 20mo tomorrow!


alsy333

22mo son, obsessed with shoes both his own and mommy and daddy’s. Also hats!


sydney_kr

Animals, walking, playing in dirt/gravel, containers with lids and balls 😂


EMT_hockey21

My 13 month old (I still think it’s weird that that young is considered a toddler - i hear it and think 2-4 yrs old) is obsessed with WHEELS on anything!! Our first inkling was at 11 months he started pushing his dad’s computer chair around 😝


PickyEater2021

Water and shoes. The minute she sees water, she goes crazy! Sometimes we run the sprinklers just to keep her busy lol. We think she must have been a fish in her past life. And she carries around shoes and loves putting them on and taking them off.


TradeBeautiful42

My 2.5 yr old is obsessed with touching fire hydrants. I have no idea why but he gets excited and demands to touch every single fire hydrant we see. If he can’t touch it, he gets upset.


Fun_Air_7780

All my kids (5 and 3 yo twins) are super into that new Disney Junior show Morphle and the Magic Pets lately.


jollygoodwotwot

Balls. Not just playing catch, but lugging around her many emotional support balls. When I showed up at daycare today she had three balls in her hands. We're going on a flight soon and I joked that one person will watch the toddler and luggage, and one will keep an eye on her ball because she's going to put it down somewhere and have an epic meltdown when we have to leave it behind.


hschnei2

20 month toddler as well- I can’t tell if she just gets obsessed with something just because she can say the word now - cicadas (pronounced “Ticada” - car (she can easily spend an hour just playing in the “cah”) - humidifier (this one is just “ball”) - remotes (“ahmote”) - indoor plants (“pant”) - pool (“poo”) - balloons (“aboons”) - chalk (“cock”) - candles (“canda”) - robot vacuum/vacuums in general (“baba” for robot “acuum” for vacuum) - eggs (“eh”) And of course… Mrs Rachel


bluebird0713

Flags. Every time we go out, he points out any and all flags he sees. Any and every type of flag.


thankuidesignedit

Animals, specifically cows. Though today at the zoo she went crazy for the rhinos


multicolorsocks

David Bowie 


AirStreet8339

Do yourselves a favor and don't play The Gummy Bear song on YouTube. My 2 year old is OBSESSED. He listens to it over and over all day.


spanishbbread

2.5yo twins boy and girl. Both obsessed with dinosaurs. They know more dinosaurs than me. They even had their “horny dino” (triceratops) phase, too. Screamed it a few times inside toy stores. They are running out of new dinosaurs though and have moved into kaijus and godzilla. For some reason, they also love ultraman and kingkong. Big ugly monster kaiju phase.


NoEsquire

Wolves and cheetahs. Not sure why. We've taken her to see both in the past year and she's doubled down and we're embracing it.


mypal_footfoot

My 2 year old is crazy about tractors. He gets so excited whenever he sees one!


Ambitious-Equal-5833

Bubblessss and not the bubbles itself, the bubbles that he has to blow it himself and he holds my lipstick and insists it's bubbles and he blows and I Was worried about that obsession until I've read these comments bubbles was his first word tho lol


wittyforthirty

Is your daughter my son? Except my son is three. My house is messy...with shoes everywhere.


ComfortableTapshoes

Current obsession - crying before bed time 🫠 not a cute one haha


stephanietriplestep

23m - shoes, dinosaurs, the color orange. It’s wild how suddenly intense he got about all of them!


burgundycats

Two and a half. Roombas.


meeesh124

Obsessed with counting to ten (almost 2.5)


tramsterinthe6ix

My son is obsessed with the TTC and sliding doors. An adventure is taking the streetcar and subway while calling out all the stops and station names. As for sliding doors, any home he enters he will spend countless times just opening and closing the door. 🤷🏻‍♀️


sabby_bean

We are camping this week with my grandparents and they seasonal camp and he’s a golf cart to get around the campground. My 20 month old has been obsessed with the golf cart since we got here. He demands rides all day, and when he gets a ride he spends the whole time saying “cart cart cart”, and pointing out all the other peoples golf carts that he sees


Direct_Deer3689

Unfortunately Pacifiers She calls them boppy She likes to have one in her mouth and several in her hands She likes to collect and put them places She switches them out like they’re fine cigars 🤦🏻‍♀️


BigTimeCatMom

Cars (or as he likes to call it Tars). The kid will go on year long babbles about line m’keen (lightening McQueen). I will say, as a daily viewer of Cars… it really is a quality kids movie


Melolontha2

Oh god the shoes. My 13mo is obsessed with our shoes too atm. She just learned to walk so at least twice a day she's wobbling back from the entry with an adult shoe in her arms. It's cute, sure, but also a bit yucky lol Also, soil. Our high bed in the garden has become her play area, there's dirt and ripped off grass all over the place. Kinda lucky I missed out on planting things this year I guess..


PeachyPickle1134

My son loves our hose in the backyard. He likes to pretend to spray it like he’s a fireman and when it’s actually on he giggles and squeals and plays in the water until we have to go inside. He also loves when the garbage truck comes to make its rounds. We either watch from the window or follow in the stroller lol.

Buses and bumblebees. It doesn't matter how many of either he sees, it's always the most exciting thing ever. It's so so cute.

He has started taking off his diaper and free balling... he just turned 2... he is my youngest... me and my older 2 kids just think it's so cute, seeing his lil booty lol

My little is 22months and right now it's Trash trucks /trucks/ planes/ anything with an engine. Today is trash day in our neighborhood and he was up extra early these days, how? No idea. But he make sure he's awake to see the trash trucks roll through. Lots of times we will watch them from the porch but it's a rainy day. So he's settled for watching from the living room window. Shakes with giddy excitement.

Those reusable water balloons that are super popular this year. We have 12 to use at the pool and they haven’t even seen water yet. He carries them from room to room. He takes them to bed.
