For the people who don’t have to do it, anyway

Alright, let’s see if we understand this right: You get some tyke-sized cleaning implements for your kids (sponge mop, duster, broom, etc.), pass them off as “toys,” and then they start enthusiastically cleaning your house, mistaking the activity for “playing?” What next, baby’s first pot-and-pan scrubber? We can’t believe a kid has fallen for this line of scam since Tom Sawyer got his pals to whitewash the fence.

Boy, if you get this to work for you though, let us know. It’ll motivate us to revisit an idea we had a few months ago to build a giant exercise wheel and put our brood to work generating electricity for our household appliances.
