The Bottom Shelf

September 20, 2009

I like to teach my children independence.  When I was organising my kitchen earlier this year, I placed all the plastic bowls, plates and cups in the bottom shelf.  This provides them with the opportunity to help me care for them: setting the table, pouring a drink of water, biscuits in snack cups and toast for breakfast.

My toddler loves choosing his own cup and is learning colours fast.  Do you have a bottom shelf idea?

We have an area for Immy’s bowls and plates in with our own and she loves getting them out ready for a meal and likes to also put them away when I am drying up.

We also have a bottom kitchen drawer with her facewashers and bibs which she accesses to get a bib out and to put them away when she helps fold the washing.
