What is up with babies and tags?! Does anyone know?
If Haddie spots a tag across the room, she will b-line for it like a bat out of hell. Once she gets there, the tag is magnetically drawn to her mouth; she just loves sucking on them.
Last week she found a small one on the bottom of a footstool, and put her head on the floor floor to eat it until I pushed the tag under the stool so she couldn’t see it.
Of course, I want to give her the best of the best, so I decided to splurge and buy her a Mary Meyer Taggies toy with a dozen tags on it for her to suck on. Let me tell you, this toy was not cheap – $30! Of course, to this day she has only sucked on the one real tag out of all the fake tags – how does she tell this difference?
There is so much in the world for her to try and eat, why go for the tags??! Does anyone know why babies are obsessed with tags??
