K.M.
my son's fav was the dishwasher so I had a bucket that he could put all the tupperware/plastics into and he felt like he was helping. My son has always been tall so a simple step stool and he was a happy camper. We also got him his own duster, mop knee pads/hand pads, tought him how to sort socks (by color at that age) and many other fun things. It is typical at this age to be "mommy's little helper" one thing we did have to teach him is "sometimes helping isn't helping"
Oh and we made a lot of stuffing for a while, he loved nothing more than to mix it with his bare hands - dried bread cubes, shredded carrot, celery, onion (optional), diced apple, seasonings, chick/veggie broth and WOW do we have a fun time for a toddler to mix and squish. I will admit there were times we could not eat it from over squishing but for the most part it came out wonderfully!
