At what age did your child learn to clean up after themselves?

Im just curious about when you kids learned to pick up after themselves. Ive tried teaching my 14 month old to put her toys away, but she's not quite getting it. If I put something in the box she just runs over and pulls it out again.
When do you think she'll grasp the concept of tidying up?
Did you do anything different to get your child interested..like a game or a song or something?

Thanks!

Answer
Getting my 5 year old to clean up after herself is like pulling teeth. But my 20 month old will put stuff away when i ask her. i think it has a lot to do with personalities. But a great song is the Clean up song.
Clean up, Clean up
Everybody everywhere
Clean up Clean up
Everybody do your share
started singing that with my first when she was 18 months, and she still sings it sometimes. now my second is started to hum a little with it.

What are good toys to buy for babies with eye problems?

rainbowbri

My friends baby was born with eye problems, she's only 4 mths old so the doc says it's hard for him to make an exact diagnosis, but she has alot of trouble focusing on things it seems . I'm not a mom so I'm not sure what toys do what, but my friend is strapped for cash so I wanted to get her a couple of things that might be helpful maybe help the kid learn to focus better? any suggestions? brands? types? specific toys?
Thanks.

Answer
i would say things with bright colors and things that move, like a mobile or one of the things that can hang on the side of the crib.
