Owen and Tape

Owen loves tape.  Loves it.  Scotch, packing, painting, duct.  It doesn't matter what kind, he will use it to fix, play or otherwise entertain himself.   He particularly likes to fix things with it.  If anything is broken or has a hole in it, tape is always the solution.  A few months ago I noticed that he had  covered a hole in his sock with tape.  Not surprisingly, it rarely is a permanent fix.

Several weeks ago, Scott went down into our play room and found that Owen had taped all over the walls.  And he hadn't cleaned it up.  The real kicker.  This was one of many incidents of him using a ton and us finding it all over the house.   So, we ended up banning him from using tape without our permission. 

It was no surprise to me to find this glove the other day outside on our back porch.  It is one of my old pairs with a hole in it.  I didn't even have to think twice about who decided to patch the hole with a band-aide instead of tape.  Owen.  If he is anything, he is creative.
