Was it outdoor play with water, mud, dress up clothes, with friends?
Young children really learn when they are actively involved in play, not when someone is talking to them. There is a difference between “messy” and “lack of care.” Send your child in clothes that can get dirty! Keep extra old clothes at the play site for times when the child gets wet or really messy. If you need to take the child out, bring the dress up clothes and allow time to change. Keep calm. Remember in a few years, teenagers will use your shampoo, mirrors, and most of your towels to be clean. But young children need time to be kids. If you have concerns, talk to your childs caregiver about active play.
