In an environment where finger painting and sticky fingers are a daily way of life, having a portable sink can make play time at day care a little less messy. Pick any regular day and time at a daycare facility and you’ll be greeted with a bustling group of aspiring artists and builders. Many of these little tykes have a flair for color and are not above wiping their hands on their clothing and any other dry surface that they can get their little hands on. This not only promotes the transfer of germs, but makes clean up time a relative nightmare. Unless, you have a portable sink to help create less havoc. Portable sinks provide their own source of not only cold water, but hot water, which is more efficient in cleaning some stains. They also provide an easy solution to clean up time, by allowing childcare providers with a more accessible source of water throughout the day. This encourages more frequent cleaning by allowing access to water as needed rather than waiting and having to clean up one giant mess. Ultimately, this will result in more play time and less clean up time for your aspiring Picasso.
