Lily is a great helper. She loves emptying the dishwasher - handing me plates, bowls, and silverware. She can reach the drawer that holds the big plastic serving spoons, so she can put those away if I open the drawer for her. Lily does need to learn the difference between dirty dishes that Mommy is putting IN the dishwasher and the clean ones that are ready to come out. And she needs to know that the silverware holder-thing stays inside the dishwasher.
Lily likes to help with the laundry, too. She puts wet items Mommy gives her into the dryer and adding the dryer sheet at the end (in the picture, she's clapping after putting it in), but the best part is pushing the "start" button on the dryer. Not everything that Lily puts in the dryer is supposed to go there, however. After spending 10 minutes looking for my shoes one day, I found one on the laundry room floor, the other in the dryer. And, like all kids, Lily eventually put herself in the dryer, too.
