Two year old + black marker = bad things

My eldest got hold of a black marker I'd "liberated" from work.

She got the calendar off the wall and proceeded to add beards and glasses to all the cute doggies. Indulgent smirk on discovery.

Then I noticed she'd drawn little smiley faces at *her* head height along the kitchen wall. She'd drawn a smiley face on the washbasket. On the washing machine door (which was glass and easy to clean), the fridge (took a while, but lemon juice worked) and finally, the tumble drier door (the mark is still there to this day).

Fairy power spray can erase permanent marker from nearly any surface, including skin (if it's not too sensitive). Try putting a little bit on a sheet of kitchen roll and wipe the mark off you tumble drier.

Thanks
The tumble drier was brand new at the time! And Fairy Power Spray hadn't been invented - naughty child (yes, she survived) is now 14

Anything alcohol-based will do it too,
e.g. meths, white spirit, deodorant and possibly vodka too.

I don't know, the last time I used vodka to deal with my daughter's writings on the walls, I noticed that her writing got *really* weird and squiggly.


Oh! you're meant to clean with the vodka, not have them drink it? never mind then.
