Entertainment for a 3 year old


This, my friends, is one of the best little toys you can have in your house. Forget about Toys R Us and walk, no RUN, to your nearest Target and buy any type of dust buster. It doesn't have to be this one- just one that works properly. I'm going to let you in on a little secret....Brett LOVES our dustbuster and he is now cleaning the floors for me daily- YIPPEE!
It all started with him being bored while I was cleaning up the kitchen one night. I handed him the dustbuster and told him I needed a big boy to help me get all the crumbs off of the floor and away he went. That little red head was a mad man. He was cleaning every square inch of floor he could get his hands on. He had so much fun, and it was so such a big help for me that I decided to make it part of his morning chores. Ella has been doing chores for a while now and I haven't been able to find many age appropriate chores for Brett. This one is perfect and it saves me from sweeping the floor at least one time a day. You have to remember... I have a 1 year old who loves to throw his cheerios and goldfish all over the floor when he's in his high chair.
Moral of the story is... all moms should own a dust buster and teach their children to use it!!

I KNOW! I bought one a few months ago and can't stop talking about it! I love it!!! It is my new best friend and Kate giggles when we use it. I use it for the highchair, floors, car seat and my car! The things us mommies get excited about!
