Helping Little Hands

Some kids, and Z is one of these, like to help put things into receptacles, such as the trash can or the recycling bin. (The toy box is usually not so readily available as either of the others.) The trash can is by far the more popular counterpart: I've found spoons and forks; dolls; cups; Z's toothbrush; lids; a couple of socks; and even Baby Jesus. But now even the recycling bin has been seeing too much action. Just the other evening I found a pot holder and a library book in there.
