Sweeping Shapes

Picked this little idea up somewhere I cannot now remember, but it's a keeper if you have a sweeper.

When you have a little pint size helper that wants to assist with sweeping, simply tape a shape on the floor, preferably across the room from where you are sweeping :), and give instructions to sweep any crumbs, dirt, etc. he can find into the shape. In our case, the shape is primarily filled with Cheerios. Which is saying a lot because there's a lot of dirt around here too.


Guaranteed to be fun and keep little feet out of your dust piles.
