My Project

Several years ago, I asked for sheets and blankets for my children, because they take naps daily. At that time, I received some washer and dryer supplies, to keep these clean and fresh. Since that time, they have gotten used up or lost, as parents take them home to wash them for me. It is time to refresh my supply, so that I can continue to keep the children's sheets and blankets clean and fresh.

"Cleanliness is the key to happiness" goes the old saying.

I want to keep my children happy and peaceful as they nap, and to do so, I need to keep their sheets and blankets clean. Instead of reaching into my own pocket to do so, I am creating this project to help me keep them clean. In addition, these materials can also be used to keep their other washable toys clean, as we clean these toys several times each year.
