He's enjoyed sorting, counting, stacking, designing, making patterns and using them as tokens or money. They're all the same size (though from different brands and fat content).
They've proven to be quite the toy. So many endless possibilities.

So far, we have 52 lids. If each gallon cost $3, that rings up to the tune of $156.

More fun with milk tops here.
