It's still new and exciting when you're 2. I don't think you're unlearning loving the tedious. Things are just not tedious at that point, but fun, novel, and optional. If she didn't want to scrub the shower, she wouldn't. But we have to do it.

Oh no, little kids absolutely love familiar, boring, repetitive things. They also like routine a lot and can get upset when given too much choice. Look at how often toddlers want to re-watch the same cartoon over and over.

Just give them a different spoon with their morning porridge and watch the drama unfold :D

Just finished bath time with new toys...I didn’t think the old, mouldy, janky beyond repair toys would be missed. Oh boy, was I wrong.

maybe we do have an instinctual aversion to disposable culture? :)

So true. So very true. I wish I could up vote this more than once.

Semi related but there was an article on here or slash about that re-watching thing. Part of it is because they "miss" so much when watching it that it is almost like "watching it again for the first time". I wish my Google fu was working because it was a neat article about young brain development and such.
