I figure someone out there has the trick. It's right around 6 or 7 that I think kids start not wanting to help but I don't think it's personal...they just need more incentive. He is VERY cute!!!Caileanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05493037574072508014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18044374.post-89948198915717519442009-01-21T08:45:00.000-08:002009-01-21T08:45:00.000-08:00How cute!

I think it's all about those tools! Make cleaning and helping about the tools and you have them forever :). My young next door neighbor Carter (now 9) has been a sweeper, mower, shoveler since he was old enough to use a handle and he still loves to do these things - just asks for money now :).Peghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04644844701802173691noreply@blogger.com
