DD has been getting up in the mornings on the weekend and telling us to stay in bed, she then goes downstairs and tidies anything that out, hoovers the living room and ‘mops’ (uses a dry/dust sheet with the flash mop) but she’s notices that I used the wet mop pads and/or spray and now she’s asking if she can do that in the mornings. Initially I said no because it’s chemicals and if I’m not downstairs with her (she doesn’t want us downstairs as she likes to surprise us with the hard work she’s done) then I can’t leave her to handle chemicals on her own. She keeps asking if she can just put a wet moo-pad on the mop so she can mop properly but wants to do it by herself and said she’ll wash her hands after she’s touched it.
I don’t know if I’m being a bit helicoptery or just expecting her to eat the mop pad which obviously she won’t.. but if I put a wet mop on the flash mop the night before and leave it covered in the tub so it doesn’t dry out. All she has to be is lift it out I guess.. should I let her? Or just say to keep using the dry ones.
