Kiki with Swiffer and Hat

On Monday afternoon Annika was running around wearing her winter hat and brandishing a Swiffer. She found the Swiffer all on her own, full length, and marched around with it for a long time. In fact, she cried and protested bitterly when it was time to put the both the hat and the Swiffer away.

We took out one of the pieces so the Swiffer wasn't so long, which you see here. Ultimately we took out a second piece, and it's the perfect proportion for her to push around now. Sadly, it doesn't seem to be as much fun at half length.

I think she was more into marching around with it upright than she was actually cleaning anything. But the sudden and passionate attachment to the Swiffer was comical.
