Foster your little one's desire to play cleanup by giving him a set of his very own supplies. Find a tote he can carry (we got ours at Michaels for $4), then consider filling it with:
A dustpan and hand broom (shown: OXO Good Grips Mini Dust Pan and Broom Set, $7)
A lint roller (good for couches and chair cushions)
A set of all-purpose microfiber towels
A plastic shower squeegee and a spray bottle filled with scented water (add a drop or two of lemon or orange extract) for cleaning windows and glass doors
A homemade "dust bunny" (draw a face with fabric marker on the toe of an anklet sock as shown, then follow the manufacturer's directions for setting the ink)
