She put everything in her mouth and I was paranoid and I SAH so she didn't have the daycare exposure aspect. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sanitizing-toys-after-guests#post-2109690 Mon, 16 Mar 2015 02:15:42 +0000 gingerbebe 2109690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes just Lysoled the PNP down after another baby with a runny nose was in it. If the kid is really sick I will Clorox wipe it down then rinse with water. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sanitizing-toys-after-guests#post-2109669 Mon, 16 Mar 2015 00:09:02 +0000 AprilFool 2109669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not unless the other child is sick.

LO spends a lot of time around the same kids, so I don't stress about it---I figure they all share germs anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sanitizing-toys-after-guests#post-2109397 Sun, 15 Mar 2015 16:26:55 +0000 ChiCalGoBee 2109397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Funny to read this as I'm in the process of doing this right now! We had a friend over yesterday who has three kids that are recovering from strep/colds. The two older ones knew to wash their hands, but the 18-month-old had everything in his mouth. Since my son is only 4 months, I figure better safe than sorry and I'm cleaning things that he puts in his mouth. Paranoid? Maybe, but it's worth a few minutes of my time if it prevents him from getting sick! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sanitizing-toys-after-guests#post-2109394 Sun, 15 Mar 2015 16:15:43 +0000 Andrea 2109394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do if I see that something has gone into a LO's mouth. It's usually something plastic so I just wash it with hot water and soap. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sanitizing-toys-after-guests#post-2109393 Sun, 15 Mar 2015 16:11:42 +0000 BabyTsMom 2109393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you sanitize toys after your LO and friends' Los all slobber over the same toys? I hadn't really thought about it before, but now I'm wondering if I should!<br /> If you do, what do you use to clean them? </p>
