Baby Wipes - Clean Desks From Karen Paradiso, a first grade teacher at Applegate School in Freehold, New Jersey: ìAt the beginning of the school year, one of the supplies I ask each child to bring is a box of baby wipes. Each Friday, after cleaning the inside of their desks, the children wipe clean the tops of their desks. Theyíre amazed at how much dirt they remove. This saves me a lot of scrubbing and teaches them responsibility.î
