Inc. and its operation,” said Laughlin. Before you allow children to do the laundry alone, let them help you with the process several times so they know what to do and are aware of potential hazards. When children understand what to do, and when to get help, they can do their share of the family laundry. Their self-esteem can suffer if their work turns out wrong, so take some time to teach them the basics. Here are some pointers from Carol Bennett. Morrow County Ex tension agent: Get two laundry baskets, one white and one colored. Have children put dirty white clothes in one and colored clothes in the other. When one basket is full, put the clothes in the washer and set it for the correct type of load: white cot tons, permanent press, or knits. Show children how to load the machine loosely, but so that it is full of dirty clothes. Keep terry cloth towels and blue jeans separate from other clothes. Terry towels give off lint and will speed up pilling, ruining the ap pearance of other clothes. Jeans are likely to fade blue dye into the water, tinting or graying other laundry. Show children which way to turn the controls. Turning them backwards can lead to costly repair bills. Mark your machine with a col ored tape arrow to show which direction to turn the knobs. If your machine has push button controls, show which buttons should be push ed for white and for colored clothes. Teach children to turn clothes inside out, empty pockets, and close zip- pers before clothes are put in the washing machine. Also, teach them to watch for stains. Most food, drink, and greasei stains will come out with heavy-duty liquid detergent or with a pretreat ment product used before launder ing. Have children wait for your ad vice if they have questions about a stain. « Detergents are generally safe,, when used correctly, but are toxic. To avoid irritation, stress the impor tance of not getting heavy-duty liquid* detergent on the skin, hands, or in the eyes. ,6 When using liquid detergents,^ show how to use the cap or a plastic cup for measuring. Buy small con tainers, if the detergents are to be us- * ed by children with less than adult strength. Then they can manage' pouring more easily. Measure powdered detergents in a plastic cup also. You can buy a big." box and let children dip out the amount needed. Caution children not to reach into the washing machine while it is washing or spinning. , Show children how to turn and set dryer controls. Again, turning them, backwards will lead to repair bills.'* Shake out clothes before putting them into the dryer. Warn children to check the lint filter to be sure that it is not block ed. A blocked lint filter can lead to 3 jjf g « • * i » > * V* 1 1 yandstrom 's and Father's Day. One terrific tie-in.
