Is anyone’s toddles obsessed with closing doors?? Like today we went to a relatives house and they had the door open as they were bringing food and drinks etc in but my LO just kept shutting the door!
I tried to distract him but the minute the door was left open, he’d go and close it!
Is this normal toddler behaviour?

Yes! When my son decides he’s had enough of you, he goes to the door, says “bye bye”, blows a kiss and shuts the door behind him 🤣 definitely isn’t afraid to show he’s finished with the conversation 🤣

My son is the same way! He just wants to open and close every door

Yes! Every chance she gets she’ll close a door even if i try to open it after shes walked off , she’ll come straight come bck to open it 🤦🏽♀️

Ummm yessss - always 😝

Yes! He loves doors and cupboards! Must be shut!! Just got to be so careful of those little fingers!

My son does this too and even says to us ‘close door’

Yep…mine has been extra about it this past week

Normal behaviour, think they’re getting into their problem solving phase! She has to open and close all of the doors, and stick our house keys in every “key-looking” hole there is.

Lol ok, glad to see it’s not just my child! Like everywhere we go, he just wants the door to be closed!
Hopefully it’s just a phase (another one!)) and they’ll grow out it soon!

We used to keep the bedroom door closed especially when my partner used to do nights. Now my tiny monster closes every single door in the house. No matter who's house is that. If he could he would just go into everyone's home, close the doors then bugger off to the next 😂

😂 they are so funny! My LO is exactly the same. He’ll be playing quietly then notice the door open and run and close. I need to get some door guards!

Yes! Even baby gates too. We have one on our living room and sometimes my older 2 kids will accidentally leave it open. Baby scoots over super fast and shuts it for them. Sometimes she will go through it and shut it behind her like shes trying to stop you being able to get her back in the room 😂
Doors she also does, but not as much. She won't shut those completely though, just pushes them until they're open a little bit.

Yes ! Mine is exactly the same he hates doors being open 🤣🤣
