taro chews on them like they have nutritional value. we have so many board books with their corners missing ๐ฉ
I do really quick stops at thrift stores now. I skip all clothing cuz it's just polyester garbage anyway. I look at books for vintage knitting books and kids books, linens (big pieces of fabric to repurpose) and the craft supply section for yarn (usually really old acrylics, pass)
most of the time I leave empty handed though. today was a very lucky day.
