Fun Helping
Mikey loves toys that spin! For more on toys that spin, click the link below.
So, whenever I was making dinner, I’d ask my buddy to help me by spinning the salad. It was an easy chore that Mikey found fun and it made my life easier to have someone else do that part for me. Win, win.
I love how Mikey would put his face down next to the outside of the salad spinner to watch it spin up close…very cute!
Explore chores that your child might enjoy and would help lighten your load. We love a good win, win.
