Clothing Boutique

We’re opening a store! Better keep all these freshly laundered clothes folded and stacked so they look nice and neat for your customer who is working on their laptop now but will come check out the inventory once this Zoom meeting is over!

Spaceport

Oh no, traffic is backed up at the Spaceport! Help all the flying saucers (plates) and other spacecraft (utensils) safely land in the docking bay (dishwasher)! Don’t let them crash, or it’ll come out of your Space Traffic Controller salary (allowance)!

Lion Tamer

Can you tame and train the f̶a̶m̶i̶l̶y̶ ̶d̶o̶g̶ lion to walk around the block on a leash every few hours? Don’t forget to bring a plastic, uh, circus bag!

Fire Department

Grab the “firehose” (pressure washer)! The “city” (patio concrete) is on “fire” (mildewy)!

Archaeology Haul

Enter the Tomb of King Crawlspace, collect artifacts you aren’t using anymore, and hand-deliver them to the Donate Box Museum for classification!
