[quote=Anonymous]OP the "lower your standards" comments are my pet peeve. It's not about lowering your standards. It's about not using your desire for the house to be tidy and clean 100% of each day to allow you to choose the iPad over the paints. It's also about realizing that kids come with gear, and lots of it, so you need to be ready to handle and store it. Consider what daycares and nursery schools do. They build in storage, they rotate toys, they allot times to get everything out, the kids make a mess, and when they have finished, the kids help the adults to clean it all up (yes, adults can clean up faster and better, but the kids need to learn). You can do the same. Also, sensory bins are a modern invention. The old-fashioned version was digging in the dirt outside, etc. [/quote]
