Since we have been sticking to our Daily Chore schedule, I have noticed that my 2 year old really wants to be involved. I had originally left him out because I thought he was to young to help with the chores. But I have since changed my mind. Here is a list of a few things that toddlers (ages 2-4) can do to help around the house. (just remember that they are still very young and need help and guidance)
- Wipe Baseboards with soapy water
- Wipe doorknobs (great for flu season)
- Wipe down the high chair or bumbo (you may need to go behind them)
- Put toys in the toy box
- Replace the toilet paper
- Put the clothes from the dryer into a laundry basket
- Bring cloths hampers to the laundry room
- Help make up their bed (to be done with mommy)
- Help pull sheets off of beds on sheet washing day
- Wipe down leather sofa’s
- Had you dishes from the dishwasher (kind of annoying, but fun for them)
- Clean up trash and toys from van or car
- Clear the table after meals
- Set the table
- Help carry in Groceries (light bags)
- Empty bathroom trashcans into larger trash bag, or kitchen trash can
- Fold wash rags
Those are a few of our favorites. What chores do you have your toddlers do?
