Edit: LOL love the responses. You ain’t wrong…
Edit2: I posted this for giggles and have enjoyed it immensely. Thanks for the “parenting advice” (rolls eyes). My daughter is a shit show, but I wouldn’t trade her in for anything. She has three daughters, one of which is exactly like her and the two others are not. So…
She’s trying, and she’s already got the concept of “concave side down” so you need to acknowledge that. Moving on, “water sprays from the center” and “similar shapes share space” are good concepts to add. She can’t exactly do “Don’t crowd” because there are just too many here. But she’s fully grasped “you can always rerun anything that doesn’t come clean the first time.”
Yeah, she doesn’t seem to be applying that, I see sideways containers.
But you don’t see any that will pool water. Sideways is perfectly fine if they face generally toward the center, or in any direction the machine sprays, if it has side sprayers. What you want to avoid is catching the wash water so it pollutes the rinse water.

Agreed, although if OP is specific about it, telling her they noticed she remembered to put the glasses on the top rack, etc. then they can do a little “I’ve found this makes it easier…” to show how a row of same-sized bowls on their sides can fit on the bottom rack. Because then you can Wolverine them all out at once and stack them on the shelf in one movement! Dishwasher Tetris can be a fun challenge.

Take out half the stuff and do two loads.
Then OP would come along, see a pile of dishes still in the sink, and post it on Lemmy. There’s probably only 3-4 items that are really going to be left with food residue here. She can put the others away and leave those in the machine for another go.
