Have you ever stepped on a Lego?


Well, I have. And it hurts.

So, why do I insist on having a collection of Legos around, just so they can make it to the floor? Just so I can step on one in the middle of the night?

Because they are sooooo worth it. I would venture to guess that they are one of the best toys ever to contribute to the creative minds of their owners everywhere. My cute nephew Caleb loves to bring one of his precious Lego creations over to show me each time he visits me house. And his creations really are incredible!

My sister, Jen, is likely to win Mom of the Year due to the collection of Lego's she has at her house. It really is phenomenal. And even better, she bought a TON of them on eBay. Especially since those little things can get oh so expensive! And knowing that someone else's kids had their possibly unwashed fingers all over the Lego's she turned to the internet for tips on Lego cleaning.

Place Legos in a pillowcase. Put pillowcase in washing machine. Wash on low setting.

Easy . . . and it works! 

Now if we could only just find an easy way to get our kids to clean them all up when they are done!   All of them.  That would sure be nice.

Because, of course, clean feels good!

  1. Well hello again. Why have I not looked at this blog in months? It is an excellent blog with awesome tips! Michelle (your bff) commented on how to clean up all those Legos. She said to lay a big sheet or blanket out and have the kids play with them on it. That way you can just easily dump them in the container when they are done. It worked for me but now they insist on having the Legos out 24/7. I realize the Lego situation is going to be with us for many more years! I actually don't really mind stepping on them anymore.
