[quote=Anonymous]My husband is overseas and I found starting around 18 months, introducing the idea of helping me clean up messes was helpful. So he throws the food he throws on the floor at meals into the trash at the end of the meal. He helps me wipe up spills. He helps me pick up his toys at the designated time. He helps me unload the dishwasher. I got him his own toy vacuum so he can vacuum along right next to me. I even showed him where all the clothes in the dresser go and he helps me put those away (and keeps him occupied) while I'm folding the rest of the laundry. Of course he didn't really get helpful with these things until closer to age 2 or later but like I said, it's been really helpful that I'm not cleaning literally everything in this house and it should be coming up soon for you OP.[/quote]
