My 3. Year old says she wants to help but gets distracted easily. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-kid-a-helper#post-2669649 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 23:15:07 +0000 Portboston 2669649@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG yes. DS is 17 months and wants to 'help' with everything. We've been having him help us clean, feed the dogs, carry things...easy stuff, for a few months now and we are seeing that he has to put everything back in its place when he is done. So Im hoping that continues since DH and I are neat freaks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-kid-a-helper#post-2669578 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 20:08:53 +0000 JennyD 2669578@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Heck yeah!</p> <p>She helps cook, put away dishes, puts away laundry, switches laundry and just generally helps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-kid-a-helper#post-2669132 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 08:45:07 +0000 Cherrybee 2669132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She loves to help with all jobs except tidying her own toys. And let me tell you, it's not at all helpful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-kid-a-helper#post-2669097 Thu, 22 Dec 2016 03:21:21 +0000 LAZB 2669097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! She's not even 2, so she can't do a lot, but she helps out things away, gets me things (like wipes when I need to change the baby), loves to load the dishwasher, washing machine, etc. her teachers have commented to me several times about how much of a good helper she is :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-kid-a-helper#post-2669048 Wed, 21 Dec 2016 21:33:26 +0000 SweetiePie 2669048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, he's 2 and loves cleaning up toys, helping me do laundry (throwing it in the drum and pushing the buttons), vacuuming, mixing, wiping up messes, throwing things away, etc. </p> <p>But he's also really good at "helping" make messes, so... :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-kid-a-helper#post-2669047 Wed, 21 Dec 2016 21:30:44 +0000 maddyz 2669047@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lo1 is really in to helping and Cleaning up but he's 21 months so it's always a mess. I try to include him add much at possible. He really wants to be a part of the work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-kid-a-helper#post-2668667 Wed, 21 Dec 2016 12:03:09 +0000 nana87 2668667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most of the time, yes! She loooves helping especially at daycare or music class. She cries if I mix my coffee or feed the dogs before she can help. But cleaning up her own toys is a different story! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-kid-a-helper#post-2668656 Wed, 21 Dec 2016 11:45:39 +0000 Meowkers 2668656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. DD is 2 and she loves helping. She throws away trash, cleans up spills, puts away items that are out of place. One of her Christmukkah presents this year is a broom, duster, dustpan set. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-kid-a-helper#post-2668555 Wed, 21 Dec 2016 09:08:02 +0000 catomd00 2668555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, she's always asking to help. I know I should appreciate it, but sometimes I just want to do it alone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-kid-a-helper#post-2668552 Wed, 21 Dec 2016 09:05:13 +0000 Mamaof2 2668552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>5yr old DD- yes and always has been</p> <p>8yr old DS - no and never was! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-kid-a-helper#post-2666932 Wed, 21 Dec 2016 09:00:00 +0000 mediagirl 2666932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I needed to do laundry so I asked my daughter (4.5) if she wanted to help fold. She jumped up and down and said yes!! I'll take advantage of it while I can. She gets mad if she can't help. </p>
