Washing

Every now and then the kitcen chairs NEED a good scrubbing. For some reason I think that giving this task to the children is a good idea. At least the crud on them has now seen soap.

We dragged the chairs out side and filled up a bucket and found 92 rags and some soap and put them to work. The deal was, if they washed it they also got to squirt it off with the water hose. Thats was the deal cincher! (What was I doing? NOT cleaning the chairs!)

After they were done with chairs they VOLUNTEERED to wash Bob! I let them.
This is what it looks like when 7 smallish persons wash a large van.

What did we learn? Its hard to clean the top of the van. When this much stuff get washed in one place the driveway gets clean too. They like soapy water. Having a mostly clean van is better than no van at all.
