We are alllllll for little responsibilities & holding Rudi accountable for those. Whether it’s doing the dishes or putting away her laundry herself - we give her ownership of things & expect them to be completed. On our boat is no different. Since she was 1.5 she’s been putting everyone’s shoes away when they get on & giving them their shoes back when we are docked. At 2 we added putting the buoys back in their place after we use them & by 3 she was taking them out & putting them in the places they were needed on the boat. We’ve added tying and untying the side ropes at the dock & it’s so cute to watch her get SO serious about HER jobs. Give kids responsibilities, hold them to high standards, watch really cool things happen. #river #boating #parenting #parenthood #theriver #lakelife #havasu #needles #laughlin
