One Dollar Wednesday: Chores for Tots

     It's about that time in Camp's young life to be taking on more responsibility. Since he's too young to get a job delivering newspapers or folding t-shirts at Old Navy, I'll let him help out with some "chores" at home. It just makes sense to start with chores now when the little guy actually enjoys these activities. And this new to the blog activity is free as long as you have some cleaning supplies on hand. Give this kid a Swiffer with a new pad or a mini brush with dustpan, and ABRACADABRA: Chores for Tots!






Some other "tot chores" that we've tested with adult supervision at our house are: cleaning up spills with a towel, putting wet laundry into the dryer, vacuuming, taking out the dirty diaper bags, and unloading the dishwasher. Of course, you can't expect perfect results when you put a 15 month old in charge, but every little bit helps!

What kind of household duties does your little one help with at home?
