Most little girls have fond memories of raiding their mum’s wardrobe and make-up bag (and making a mess along the way).
But most don’t have access to quite the same level of dress up options as North West.
Namely a pair of thigh-high Balenciaga metallic boots, worth $1550...
North might only be three years old, but that hasn’t stopped her from raiding her mum’s wardrobe.
Kim Kardashian West shared the adorable snap of her daughter ‘wearing’ the silver heels on her Instagram account on Monday 15 August with the caption:
“Didn’t think it would happen this soon...my baby girl stealing my shoes. At least she has good taste.”
Despite the boots being bigger than North, it won’t be long before she is actually stealing them for real.
Kardashian better watch her style crown.
Post things

There is something so brilliantly intriguing about putting something through a hole and it just, well, disappearing. Forever. So, if they can’t reach the letter box to post valuable items from the inside of your house to the outside of your house (car keys for example), they will definitely settle for your credit cards and a gap between the floorboards.
Swing on the curtains

Yes, they’ve been told time and time again that if they hang on them the whole pole will fall off the wall... but they don’t believe you, they think you’re just being mean.
Cover the bathroom with toothpaste and stick stuff to it

It’s frustrating for them that something which looks like glue is only ever dispatched in tiny, pea-sized amounts – and disappears in their mouth.
Touch the toilet brush

Simply because ever since they have been able to move, they’ve been told not to touch it, or indeed go anywhere near it. They don’t just want to touch it though, do they? No, actually they want to clean the floor, and the walls, and the bath with it.
Cut their own hair

It’s something they have been thinking about for AGES. Leave a pair of craft scissors unattended at any point, even the non-pointy ones, and you’ll find your child 15 minutes later, hiding behind the sofa, sitting on tufts.
Write on your work
Claudia Gopperl
Yes, they have their own paper, but it’s just not the same. They might do one or two pictures on their own pad, but in your diary? They really want to do a picture and ‘writing’ on every last page. Just for you.
Take their wheeled toy/buggy/scooter up the stairs

Warnings about the dangers of wheeled toys at the top of a staircase fall on deaf ears when all they can focus on is HOW FAST THEY COULD GO DOWN!
Drink squash with no water in it

They might not even drink squash as a general rule, but they have a very strong suspicion that neat squash is amazingly delicious. First chance they get, they’ll grab themselves a cup/bowl/vase, fill it with neat squash and hide somewhere, grimacing as they persevere and force it down (because, surprisingly enough, it’s actually quite foul).
Make an actual successful phone call

This usually results in having a proper person on the other end – even if they are saying “HELLO? HELLO? WHO IS THIS? PUT THE PHONE DOWN!” or, alternatively “Emergency services, which service do you require?” They’ll never give up.
Give the cat a bath

When they try, and fail, they’ll really want to make the cat wear a doll’s outfit. When they try this, and fail again, they’ll really want to decorate the cat with very sticky stickers. Bingo!
