It’s not child labor, it’s an age-appropriate-developmental-sorting-activity. And at the very least occupies her attention for 4 minutes.
I hope she’s still happy to have this chore years from now. I have been emptying the dishwasher for as long as I can remember. Seriously. Here’s proof, circa 1981 or so.
Certainly I was also in a “paparazzi avoidance” phase here, I am sure I was thrilled to help out at Nana’s!
Love it! PB has recently started wiping things off on her own; was it wrong of me to give her a dustcloth?! I jokingly sing "Cinderelly, Cinderelly" when she's at work…
Darling pictures! Lorax looks so pleased to be helping!I can only speak for myself and Offspring, but neither of us likes to empty a dishwasher. I was very glad to hand it over to her when she was old enough. Sometimes when we know she is coming for a visit we make sure to fill and start the dishwasher so she can empty it. We like to mess with her.
