What are your LO's favorite household items that have been repurposed as toys? I remember loving playing with my mom's Tupperware bowls and plastic measuring cups.
-
LO has all the Tupperware lids in his playroom now! His baby spoons are another favorite item to do anything with them but actually use them for eating food.
-
Lately it's the empty plastic easter eggs that are a huge hit with the baby
-
Silicone muffin cases and anything that rustles/crackles like a bag of chips or pack of wipes
-
LO has stolen my funnels, measuring cups, bento box, popsicle mold set, turkey baster, and pastry brush. She's also obsessed with the salad spinner but I haven't given up custody of it.
Also she has claimed all old electronics: phones, remotes, calculators and keyboards.

Xander loves the empty diaper and wipes boxes! My husband is bad at breaking them down and putting them in the recycling, so Xander now has a collection in his room and he builds tunnels and forts with them!

@prettylizy: my little sister got 1/2 of one stuck almost in her throat when she was 1 it can happen be careful
-
Plastic measuring cups are a huge favorite!
-
Wooden spoons. I gave him two that I didn't care for and they're the best toys he's ever seen.
-
Cups and washcloths. Oh! And spoons. She gets so excited when she sees a "poon". I don't get it.
-
DS loves any sort of whisk. It's his mix mixer!
-
Any kind of container with a lid or cap. Especially twist on caps. He will spend forever twisting the cap on and off!

J's favorite toy right now (12.5 mos) is a wooden spoon. Loves it. Sometimes he "stirs" a metal bowl--fun sound! -- but sometimes he just carries it around.
He is also very excited about an old plastic colander and remote controls.

@prettylizy: We went through this phase too. Now that he's older he found on Youtube videos of people opening up Easter eggs to see the prizes inside. They do little reviews on them and he just loves watching it. Not sure why?
Another weird item my LO liked when he was around 8mos was the edge pieces off the foam puzzle mats in the playroom. He would pull them off and chew on them
