My helper.  We don’t have a child lock on the dishwasher, and he’s very good at pushing the buttons and turning the dials.  He loves to open and close doors.  He has even opened this and crawled onto the door – all it takes is a split second.  I have to be SO vigilant with this little guy.  Note the neatly folded stacks crumpled piles of kitchen towels on the cart behind him.  Another fun thing to do is help fold unfold things.  And put things away.  Sometimes I find toys and household miscellany in wastebins, laundry baskets, cabinets, and drawers.

Having a helper is the best!

Tip of the day: check ALL internal rubbish bins to make sure that your jewellery/important papers/mobile phone/sunglasses/keys haven’t been dropped in by your little (un)helper!

Aw mom – he is just doing what kids do. He must see you clean and do the right things instead of sit on the couch watching TV all day – and guess where he would be.
Child proof those cabinets unless you are sure there is nothing in there to harm the little one.
I have a dust pan with a brush that the five year old uses to clean up the crumbs when they get ready to leave – just bought a smaller version for little sister, 3, because she wants to clean also.

Ooh I love that kitchen trolley!

He is SO cute! Impossible to see the towels through the sheer power of his glowing cuteness aura!!
