The other day, my sister shared a story about him that can motivate any flybaby.
When it was time for him to come out of the bath, the first thing he had to do was clean up his toys. Now, when we have to clean up in our own home, we end up singing the clean up song (made famous by Barney). But my nephew took his cleaning up to a whole new level. He made it into a game.He took each toy individually and dance it over to the other side of the tub. It was his little way of saying goodbye to each toy.
Remember Mary Poppins' famous words? "In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun. We find the fun and, SNAP! The job's a game!" (I first blogged about Mary Poppins here).
At only three years old, and probably without ever seeing Mary Poppins, this little boy has so much that he can teach us.
Now I just have to get my butt into gear and turn cleaning my kitchen into a game!
Just a spoon full of Huda helps the medicine go down!
ReplyDeleteHoney, when the dishes start dancing their way into the soapy water and the drawers are opening and closing by themselves, it's time to check the insert that came with the medication, ya know? :)
