Little Bandit

Baby has this little device called a Snack Trap. It's a cup with a trap door for dry snacks, where you can easily put snacks in and pull them out, but they won't fall out of the cup if it ever gets upended. Within this cup lies the source of Baby's energy: Pepperidge Farm Goldfish.

Legend has it that one day, a tiny thief roamed the land, and the people closest to him called him Little Bandit. Little Bandit's goal between his naps was to fill his round little belly. On one fateful day, Little Bandit saw his quarry in an unattended diaper bag. Knowing his nemesis, the All Seeing Mommy was preoccupied with menial chores, Little Bandit did what he did best, and snuck his chubby fingers into the diaper bag to fish out his own Holy Grail with trap door, swimming with precious Goldfish. When Little Bandit heard the All Seeing Mommy's footsteps growing louder, his instinct told him to stuff his prize back in the bag, as Mommy's untrained skills would not be able to detect such a stealthy deed. But the All Seeing Mommy knows and sees all, which is the only reason that I am able to tell you this story now. And to this day, Mommy has been the only person to ever catch the Little Bandit in the very act that earned him his name.

Be weary of your own Little Bandits, as you can see that training begins at a very early age, so be sure to mind your belongings and snacks around them.
