Jenna Dewan-Tatum is desperate for her daughter to watch movies.

She said: "She won't even sit through five minutes of Baby Einstein. So there's no movies to be watching. Maybe in a year. Everyone says in a year -- two-and-a-half, three, is when they really start watching movies. That will be fun because I want to see them more than she does. That's the thing -- all those cartoons. It's embarrassing."

The 'Step Up' star has found one simple thing that keeps her daughter's attention engaged for lengthy periods of time.

She explained: "It's not a toy. She just loves boxes and pulling things out and in of boxes. Literally, I can give her my purse and she will pull things out and put things back in for -- I've counted -- an hour before. So far, it's been really good."

Jenna is amazed at mothers who are able to go out wearing make-up - not just because it is hard to find the time but because Everly always hides her cosmetics.

She told People magazine: "I'm like, 'How does that happen?' Everly will actually take it from me and go put it somewhere else.

"I'm like, 'OK, I need that make-up back.' It's a whole big circus in our household."
