Persil's 33 things

Persil, the washing powder people, created their own blog-tag like list of things for kids to do before they are 10. They are things calculated to make sure their clothes will need washing! But that's not surprising. Still, it's a good list, and everyone of these would make a fabulous LO. Build them into your next 6 months (even if you're NOT a kid!) and don't forget the camera!

How many have you done?
How many have your kids done?
My tally is higher than my kids' - more freedom in my day...
