My girl friends son got tired of having to pick up the toothpaste , open the cap, squeeze toothpaste on his toothbrush, put cap back on, put paste away and then start brushing his teeth. So he nailed it to the wall with the cap down, Easy right? It was for him for one more day. His sister left the cap off, paste down a wall on to the floor. He said, " well back to the drawing board". 8 years old at the time. lol
Laziness leads to different needs and different needs lead to creativity! But "Back to the drawing board"... He might become one of the greatest free-practising inventors the world knows! :)

It's sad to see so many little kids with their tablets and mobile phones.
It's been proven that for kids under 3-4 it's detrimental to long term memory and problem solving.

All the "inventions" with mobile phones are extremely harmful for the body. Either they are too close to the eyes or in fixed positions so that limits neck movement and can cause neck strain and more serious spine problems. I think atleast TV gives some degree of mobility atleast. Parents please discourage such mobile use.
Many videos or games on cellphones are tailored to be educational and helpful for a child to grow. Please think about the mattee before you complain about it.

It's rather disheartening, really, to see how many VERY young children are being robotised with electronic gadgets. I guess my favorite had to be the young lady who came up with the "book saver" so she could read in the bath.
So many of these inventions are centered upon cell phones. That disturbs me.
It's a shame that so many of these inventions involve using tablets/phones. Children shouldn't be using them, in my opinion. Mine definitely wont be. Parents think parenting is just sitting them in front of a screen, so sad.
Kids have many good ideas! Well most of them come from them being a bit lazy but adults do it too. Beer helmets and mini fridges built in the chair..
As a big reader I love the solved problem of books being dropped in the bath :D I'm 24 and I wouldn't have thought of that!
95% of these problems could be solved by using a screen that is ment for the case.
Awesome inventions? Half of these are just really lazy kids who want to watch a movie/tv with the least possible effort.
I was going to ask why some of the adults here are so quick to not only judge children, but are downright mean about it. But I figured, with me having aspergers, maybe it's just one more social norm I don't get. Frankly, it disgusts me, and if it's normal behavior, it's just one more reason I hope to never be normal.
I would like to address all the Nay Sayers. What these kids are doing may be simple but if you break it down to critical thinking skills, what these kids are doing is amazing! For their ages to come up with solutions that make there lives easier is a step in the right direction for when they are faced with more difficult challenges in the future.
