[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine are 6 and 8 and after they clear the dinner dishes, they go upstairs, shower/shampoo, brush teeth and and get in bed, then call us up to read a story and tuck them in. I don;t always feel like reading but the fact that they now do everything else is pretty nice and the story takes 10 minutes tops. It's a nice time of day for us.[/quote] How does your six year old get all the shampoo out of her hair? I'm envious - my DD is 7.5 and she just can't do it well yet (her hair is long, thick and curly). Even my 9 year old asks for my help adjusting the knobs to the proper temperature. Maybe I'm babying them.[/quote] PP again - my kids do PJs and brush teeth independently, but I do still tuck both in with a kids goodnight. We don't read before bed anymore now that they're older...they read all the time on their own (9 year old has no desire for me to read to him and 7.5 year old still likes it occasionally).[/quote]
