I agree Rochelle—they could also wash the toys in the children area which is very helpful. Board books and picture books are a great area to focus on for book washing as are the holiday books that get a tremendous amount of circulation at certain times of
the year. Counting the pieces in the games or kits that you have out or that circulate is another necessary task that often gets overlooked.</div>

<div style="box-sizing:border-box">We've had people with the same thing. We would have them bag crafts to go, stamping due date cards, but the most helpful was cleaning books, cds, etc. That's something we normally don't have time for and it's amazing how
by just using a slightly damp cloth can clean things we don't even see are there.</div>
