Pick Up Your Toys

My two grandsons, 5 and 6 years old were told by their mother to pick up the toys in their room. After saying this many times, their mother, my daughter, began picking up some and putting them into the toy box. Now, as the reader, what do you think? I told my grandsons that they made the mess; they need to clean it up. I gave them a crate and suggested they put all the tiny cars and trucks in the crate. Then they could take a 30-minute break. Then they could put the larger toys in the toybox. This seemed to work with a break in between.
