Parent Hacks- Use the Dishwasher As A Pouring Surface

Use the Dishwasher...

rHelp you toddler practice his/her motor skills while minimizing the typical clean up when he or she wants to help you measure ingredients or make dinner.  Set a bowl on the open dishwasher door, creating a low table surface for pouring or put some water in a bowl with wooden mixing spoon so your child can copy what you are doing.   But never leave your toddler alone while doing this!
