Kylie is typically very good at finding things to occupy her time if I am busy. On this particular day that included clearing the pots and pans out of the cupboard.
When she decided to climb in I wasn't thrilled, knowing the last time that cabinet had been cleaned.
Problem solved: I handed Kylie a wipe and she was happy to help.
She was incredibly thorough, making sure to get even the back corners. She followed this up with wiping out the pots and pans and putting them away!

A week later, she was playing with the pans again, came up and asked me for wipe so she could clean. No problem baby girl! Now how do I encourage this enthusiasm for helping through her teen years??
I have always said one year-olds are the BEST cleaners in the world. ;) Her enthusiasm for herself in the video is fantastic. :)
