Toddlers can be a whirlwind of energy, constantly getting into mischief and making demands. That’s why I genuinely believe that babies are a lot easier to manage. Here are my top reasons why:

  1. Babies don’t try to “assist” with everything you do.
  2. They don’t scatter toys all over the floor multiple times a day.
  3. You won’t find babies removing their clothes or diapers.
  4. Babies don’t create food art on your walls and furniture.
  5. They won’t have tantrums when you lend a helping hand.
  6. Carrying a baby is a breeze compared to a 20-pound toddler.
  7. They don’t climb onto tables or furniture.
  8. Babies don’t raid their siblings’ toy collections.
  9. Baby poop has a milder smell than toddler messes.
  10. You won’t need a pantry stocked with endless snacks for babies.
  11. Babies aren’t curious about the toilet.
  12. They take frequent naps, giving you some much-needed downtime.
  13. Babies can’t escape during diaper changes.
  14. You won’t be awakened by a baby wandering into your room at night.
  15. They don’t demand to play in the sandbox.
  16. Babies are happy with the same meals day after day.
  17. There’s no need to brush baby teeth—just yet.
  18. They won’t try to sneak a sip of your coffee.
  19. Babies aren’t quick enough to outpace you.
  20. They lack the strength to accidentally hurt you.
  21. No crayon murals on the walls from babies.
  22. Babies don’t confuse your hygiene products for candy.
  23. They won’t beg for repetitive TV shows.
  24. Babies can’t open doors and wander outside.
  25. They aren’t aware that cookies are worth a good scream.

In summary, while both babies and toddlers come with their own sets of challenges, babies offer a more manageable experience. They are less demanding, easier to carry, and provide ample opportunities for rest—making them a breeze compared to their toddler counterparts.
