[quote=Anonymous]We are in the same situation now - except it is 4 days perweek. I've asked for things like, return library books, pick up some new ones, grocery shop, clean kids room, organize toys and clothes and kids closets, get art supplies, prep art projects, research swim classes, tumbling or whatever (new games to try?), kids laundry. She does get a lot of down time but i see it as a perk and one that i hope is incentive to stay with us. But I do expect her to be productive if there is something that can help. I think if the task has something to do with caring for children than it is a fair assignment. Maybe she could learn to cook. Watching early moring talk shows and organizing toys sounds relaxing to me as does sipping on starbucks looking up fun activities (and implementing of course.) Erin[/quote]
