The Devinator
Devin is a bit of a bruiser. One of his favorite activities is to attack his daddy whenever Cat is lying on the floor attempting to stretch his back out. Devin gets an evil grin on his face and then takes his dad down like a seasoned pro, giggling madly the entire time.
He also enjoys flinging things. He flings blocks, toy train tracks, books, food, clothing. Grab and toss, grab and toss.
To keep himself energized for all the flinging and wrasslin', he eats a lot. Cheerios are one of his favorite snacks but, because of THE FLINGING it can be a bit messy. So......I just bought him these nifty little snack traps.

See, the point is that the lid allows the kid to reach in and grab the snack while keeping him from spilling it everywhere. Great idea, huh?
Sure, it would be. If my kid would refrain from pulling out every morsel and then FLINGING THEM HITHER AND YON.
Now it looks like we've set up some pathetic boobie trap in front of the door to trap wayward ducks or hungry toddlers or something.

In addition to grabbing every morsel out, eventually the plastic flaps on the lid get 'softer' and your delightful child can then SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE the cup and fling Cheerios ALL OVER for everyone to step on and grind into the carpet. Just to warn you.
