I just had a brainstorm and I hope I'm right here...
Do the washable potty pads make the krinkly noise? My girls like to play with their potty pads because of the noise they make, it's just like so many of the krinkly toys that they love. So the lightbulb went on in my little brain

and I thought...I bet the washables don't make that noise and maybe the games and destruction would stop.
So, for those who use them can you give me some hope? would they stop the destruction and constant chasing of my girls with a wee pad in their mouth? I'm sure they've made a big game of it now...they get a kick out me me chasing them to grab that pad!
