When children visit the shop, one of the things they love doing is... washing our windows!
We have a child-sized spray bottle filled with water and small child-sized squeegee set up at the front window.
Children can spray and wipe windows while their parents shop - and most do!
Most young children love cleaning the windows.
This is because they learn by imitating the actions of adults around them. Seeing parents or caregivers engage in household chores, like cleaning the windows, inspires them to do the same.
Helping out also gives young children a feeling of belonging and importance.
They feel proud knowing they can contribute to the household, just like the grown-ups.
Children also enjoy all the developmental benefits:
Age: 18 months + (requires strong hand strength to squeeze bottle)
Materials:
Purpose: To learn the practical skill of washing the windows while developing fine motor skills and coordination
Adult Preparation: Fill a spray bottle with water. Place it, with the squeegee and drying cloth, next to a window.
