Parenting Tactic: Arcade Machine Toy Confiscation Method

Chopsy Baby

It is around 2am when one can’t sleep, that eBay is the best website in the world. For some reason at this hour, I absolutely needed to buy an arcade grabber machine. Imagine my excitement not only to find one, but to find one located in Bristol. The temptation is strong.

But instead of filling it with cheap soft animals, It would be great to put the children’s favourite toys in when they are playing up. Then, spend a peaceful hour with a coffee watching them try to win the back again. Winner.
