From an early age, we have taught Jonah how to clean up and it has paid off-- we will send him to the playroom and tell him to clean it up and in about 10 minutes he calls us and shows off his hard work. Seriously - this is how he cleans up- better than Rick and I do too. He will make sure all the cars and tracks go together, all the people in the right bucket and even Harper's purse items (lipstick, keys, etc) go in her purse. He has photographic memory and we get a clean looking playroom. Now to be fair, he doesn't clean it up everyday or night- just went it gets real bad- part of having an extra room for a playroom is so we can just shut the door and go on!
