Abigail like to do that too although i think she does it as much as your two. I often find my t.v mag in pieces and the newspaper that i haven't yet read. it keeps her quiet too but as shes only 1 she likes to eat it too!!!

benjamin has only ripped his books once & so therefore i told him i was taking them away from him until he can not rip them...he threw a head fit but has never done it since took them away for about 2 days.....

Yep i have that problem too!!! My two year old is the worst with the five year old not far behind!!! he loves to rip up papaer and stick it back togther again with sellotape or glue!! I have hide the glue away!

The best way i have found to deal with it is to let them have old magazines cards etc and we makwe pictures with them and they love that. we have made collages out of of all sorts of bits and pieces cuz in our house thwe more glue the better!! Trouble is we have had a situation where we have been stuck to a chair beacuse glue was used when my back was turned and put onto my dining room chairs!!

Kids- dont we just love them!!!
