Tackling Mount Washmore: Easy Laundry Solutions - Blog Entry

23 Aug 2009 02:14 PM

Sure! I am happy to help. Every child is different, but I can share some simple ideas for 2 and 3 year olds with laundry. At this age it is all about team work and helping you. They may be able to: put dirty clothes into a basket, help you sort dark laundry from light laundry (make it a game), hand you clothes that you put in the washer (saves mom or dad from bending), help put clothes in a dryer (hand them lightweight items such as socks) and put clothes into an open drawer (at 3).

Queen, make sure that your hose is lead-free. Most garden hoses aren't, and children can absorb dangerous levels of lead from baby pool water when there is lead from the hose. Look for a hose that says it is safe for drinking.

Here it depends. We have a well, so we don't pay for water, just the electricity it takes to pump it up. Other homes use city water, and there is a water charge.

Great inspiration, Samual. I like the library for books as well. Not only can you check them out, but you can buy used ones there as well.

Good point! All of the working cats at the garden are sprayed/neutered.
