You have enough cleaning to do when it’s time to clean your house besides adding children’s toys to your list, so try this idea. A couple of times per week while you are sitting and playing with your children have the kids help you wipe down the plastic and wooden toys.
Regardless if you are a day care center provider or health care center or a stay at home mom, your wooden children’s toys and waiting room toys need to be cleaned and sanitized on a regular basis. Getting the kids involved will help make the job easier and fun.
An activity such as this will also provide you some extra quality time with your kids just to sit and talk and laugh. Conversations and creative play will be spontaneous as you and the children are cleaning and handling each toy and forming new memories can be an added benefit.
