Magic Toy

Our new cleanup game with my preschooler is called “magic toy”. In her pile of toys there are magic toys. As she cleans up she holds each one up to me and I inspect it. Most of the time I say “nope, not it” but every fifth toy or so I say “that’s it!”. Both the magic and non-magic toys go in the toy bin. Then she searches for another magic toy. Keeps her focused and engaged. She told me “it’s funny when you say not it!” I’m going to enjoy it while it lasts.
