Ever pretend there’s an evil witch upstairs making you clean the kitchen in exchange for your freedom? If she comes down and finds one thing wrong or out of place you’ll be her servant for another year.
Maybe the pirates are making you swab the deck and will examine your cleanliness in exchange for not having to walk the plank.
Since listening to Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle stories on CD (borrowed from the local library) Cutie Pie has become quite adept at imagining situations and scenarios that encourage him to clean up well and quickly!
Hubby and I really enjoy listening to the Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle stories, too!
I love Mrs. Piggle Wiggle…read the books to my students for years…such great lessons!!
