I was babysitting while the parents of my grandchildren went out to dinner. In a period of lax supervision my granddaughter shredded some streamers and the floor was getting a bit cluttered. I got out a broom and dustpan and began cleaning up the mess. My granddaughter wanted to help.
I said to myself, “Why not?” I realized it would take much longer but it was a chance to teach her a valuable skill. It was quite a game. We swept, searched and swept some more. It is amazing all the places little pieces of glitter can hide.
Next time you are bored I suggest you find a three year old and try to clean house. Try to look like you are having fun.
