After reading Mrs. McNosh Hangs Up Her Wash by Sarah Weeks, tell the children they are going to help do laundry. Outside, set up a clothesline and give the children lots of washcloths and a basin of water. Add child-safe soap if wanted. Encourage the children to swish the washcloths in the water, wring them out and hang on the clothesline with clothespins.
