Why does my daughter get into things?

Question

about once a month my only child who is three will sneak into the frige and dump everything out(butter, milk, pop, etc.) I think she should know better by now

Answer 1

maybe she doesn't like them

Answer 2

Because she is a kid lol. Where are you when she is doing this? If she has time to dump out everything then apparently you aren't around her when she is. I would understand if she did it while you were in the fridge or was doing something real quick but she shouldn't have had time to empty the whole fridge.

Answer 3

I'd say she's bored and unsupervised. Where are you when she's destroying things?

Answer 4

maybe its becuz she really curious...i mean sooner or later she wil figure out if i do this...what will mommy do?

if you tell her what might happen she might say that doesent sound so good...

Answer 5

it depends on your reaction when she does this.Do you give her a time out,do you make her help you clean it up....if she is getting something out of it if she is still doing it.If my daughter 3 also did that ohhhhh boy she would be in trouble....she would help me pick up the mess and after it would be in bed.....once she dropped a whole container of blueberries because she wasn't being careful and after I told her to push them away from the edge of the table she had to pick them all up.She wasn't happy at all she complained and whined the whole time.Now she is more careful.
