Dust Bunny is a cute and fuzzy duster that not only makes cleaning fun, but can also influence kids to get excited about cleaning. The bunny is made from high-tech, high-pile microfiber which is very effective at gathering dust.
Best of all, Dust Bunny is machine-washable for maximum convenience.
Implications - The use of cute imagery or friendly figures in cleaning products is a tried and tested way to get children involved in necessary, tedious chores. This ensures that the average child is not lazy, which is a fear for many young parents due to the prevalence of video games and other recreational pieces that do not encourage physical movement.
