Don't ask me about hiding places....I thought I had a perfect spot in a bench in the hallway, that is kind of hard to open...especially for a four year old, anyway the only thing we use it for is old blankets etc. so it never gets opened....but I got busted and my daughter found the stash...luckily most of her things were elsewhere and mostly everything in there was for her little brother. She was so sly about it to, she actually waited a couple of days then ever so casually asked, "Mom..why are there toys in the bench in the hallway?" I couldn't believe it!!
