How to Laundry 101 TO TEACH KIDS

If you have kids, you know about this.
In order to make are children do for them selfs an be productive adults later in life, they must learn to do their own laundry.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• washing machine
• laundry detergent
• bleach
• stain treatment
• dryer or clothes line

1. 1* TAKE YOUR LAUNDRY AN SORT IT.
   1 PILE FOR WHITES
   1 PILE DARK COLORS
   1 PILE LIGHT COLORS
   I ALWAYS MAKE 1 PILE ALONE FOR JEANS.
   MAKE SURE ALL YOUR SOCKS ARE RIGHT SIDE OUT.
   FOR DARK COLORS I LIKE TO TURN WRONG SIDE OUT.
   IF THERE ARE ANY STAINS YOU WANT TO TREAT THEM NOW.

2. SHOW THE KIDS WHAT LOAD SIZES ARE. SMALL MEDIUM,OR LARGE.
   ADD DETERGHENT AS DIRECTED BY MANUFACTURER.IF WASHING WHITES ADD YOUR BLEACH.( SOME OF US PERFER TO USE FABRIC SOFTNER, IF THIS IS THE CASE, MAKE SURE YOU SHOW THE KIDS WHEN AN HOW IT IS USED. EITHER BY WASHER USE OR DRYER USE.) START THE WASHER RUNNING WATER. PUT IN THE GARMENTS YOU ENTEND TO WASH.
   FOR DARK COLORS ALWAYS USE COLD WATER.
   FOR LIGHTER COLORS USE COLD OR WARM WATER.
   FOR WHITES ALWAYS USE HOT WATER.
   CLOSE THE LID AN LET WASH.

3. WHEN WASHER HAS FINISHED, SHOW THE KIDS HOW TO USE THE DRYER OR CLOTHES LINE.
   AS THE LAUNDRY BECOMES DRY, TAKE THE TIME TO LET YOUR CHILDREN KNOW THE WAY THEY SHOULD REMOVE THE CLOTHES AND FOLD THEM.
   NOW, HELP THE CHILD PUT THE LAUNDRY AWAY. SHOWING THEM THE PROPER WAY TO PUT IN DRAWERS AN HANG IN CLOSETS.

Tips & Warnings

• I HAVE FOUND THAT THE YOUNGER THE CHILD IS THE BETTER THEY BECOME AT THIS AS THEY GET OLDER.
• WE MADE IT A NORMAL HOUSEHOLD CHORE FOR THE KIDS. EVERYONE DOES IT.
• ALWAYS WATCH OVER CHILDREN WHILE DOING LAUNDRY. THEY NEED SUPPERVISION ADDING CHEMICALS TOGETHER. LIKE SOAP AN BLEACH AN OR EVEN FABRIC SOFTNER AS WELL AS STAIN TREATERS.THEY COULD EVEN GET BURNED USING HOT WATER.
• MAKE SURE THE KISDS NOW WASHER, DRYERS AN CLOTHES LINES ARE NOT TOYS AN CAN BE DANGEROUS.
• LETS BE SAFE AN TEACH ARE CHILDREN PROPER SAFETY USE!!!!
