Sophia's Third Chore

Sophia has self selected three chores with varying degrees of helpfulness/damage risk to household objects. 

Emptying the dishwasher (which can be seen here)is probably the most helpful, but comes with the liability of possible damage to dishes (she usually only does the spoons and forks but sometimes goes for a ceramic plate or bowl) or to the dishwasher in her zeal to close the drawer or continuously discouraged desire to stand on the door.

Vacuuming the rug with a hand vacuum (shown here) is probably the least helpful (although when the vacuum actually meets the rug there is a chance something gets swept up), but also carries a relatively low risk of damage to both the vacuum and our home.

The lowest damage risk and the least helpful chore is her latest one. It is her "rock 'n roll" method of laundry folding.

Step 1: "Roll" the laundry.
Step 2: "Rock" the laundry in a rocking chair.
Step 3: Throw yourself on top of the pile of clean clothes.
Step 4: Walk away.

Below Sophia will demonstrate how to master her technique. 
You will likely find it a lot more fun than your previous approach, if not more effective.
