Household Chores for Preschoolers- Wash the Windows

Do double duty- get the dirt removed from your windows and let your child have some fun! Also, one more perk- increase fine motor skills.

Give your child a spray bottle filled with water and some paper towels or a lint free cloth (like microfiber- just for your benefit later so you don't have to try to get all the link off!). Let your child clean the sliding glass window, shower door, front door, refrigerator, cabinets, and anything else that can handle a spray of water!

Remember not to use cleaning products for this activity! Water works just fine and your child will have a great time!

I'll have to try this as ds is loving helping right now. I've just got him washing up dishes, this week. He loves the routine and steps and is proud of the wet tower of plates and cups. :)
