seeing the world from two feet higher

My son uses a stepstool when we cook together. He recently discovered he can push it around the house, effectively doubling the size of his world.

He can reach the peanut butter jar in the pantry, which makes it easy for snacking right out of the jar using his fingers- no utensils needed.

Light switches are now within easy reach. (The thermostat too...)

 



Wall art can now be studied.

 





 

"Mom," he says, "I want this to be my new house."

 





Why yes, the hall closet did need to be organized, thanks.

 





 

Luckily, when he saw the cleaning supplies in the closet, I was able to distract him from his organizing project and on to another project: window washing.
