My Laundry Checklist

Here is a mother’s guide on how to put laundry away when you have an older baby or toddler available and willing to help.

1. Remove freshly laundered clothing from dryer and put in laundry basket.
2. Carry laundry basket of clothing to bedroom and dump clothes out of basket onto bed.
3. Proceed to neatly fold laundry.
4. Put neatly folded laundry back into the basket.
5. Have one 9-month old baby available to tip basket over and pull out each folded item.
6. Have baby grab clothing items and shake furiously in the air.
7. Repeat steps 3-6 as needed.
