Whe...There's certainly sucha thing as 'too clean.' When he was growing up, my husband lived next door to a family with 3 little girls. The mother had them sparkling clean all the time. Every toy was sanitized. The kids were never, ever sick.<BR/><BR/>Until they went to school. And because they had no resistance, suddenly they were sick all the time!<BR/><BR/>So, yeah, a little dirt never hurt anyone!Mom2furhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09919967314390699344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669794740877916785.post-52730986811560041002009-03-11T23:28:00.000-04:002009-03-11T23:28:00.000-04:00Thank you for this post.

I always want to clean up his area but USUALLY do not, unless I know he will not have time to work on his artwork for a few days. I think he needs the mess of many colors of clay, clay tools, and idea books to stimulate his creativity. Thanks again for the interesting post.Samanthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12173981103532311125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669794740877916785.post-73681979177938803282009-03-11T19:04:00.000-04:002009-03-11T19:04:00.000-04:00how refreshing!

(Embedded in there is the worry that if when she's older and I want her to clean her room that I won't have a let to stand on with that request!) Perhaps I'll relax the worry and find a better balance...and come to think of it, she is pretty healthy...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669794740877916785.post-39710015845453696392009-03-11T16:25:00.000-04:002009-03-11T16:25:00.000-04:00I am quite sure this is the very reason I have suc...I am quite sure this is the very reason I have such healthy kids!DairyQueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058172123527404278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669794740877916785.post-20408332724820780202009-03-11T12:58:00.000-04:002009-03-11T12:58:00.000-04:00This makes me feel A LOT better!
