Jennifer Garner's three-year-old daughter is putting mom to work - the actress is "scrubbing the toilets" at the tot's preschool. Little Violet is in her second year at the same Boston, Massachusetts co-operative preschool her father Ben Affleck once attended - and parents are expected to help maintain facilities and volunteer for field trips.

And, while Affleck films his new movie "The Town" nearby, Garner is working up a sweat with other devoted moms and dads.

She explains, "Parents run the school, so I work at the preschool. It's a lot of toilet scrubbing... painting and pulling out staples. But it's fun because you get to chat with other moms."

However, Garner admits she's looking forward to returning to a film set when Affleck's project is wrapped, so he can experience the joys of cleaning his old school from top to bottom.

She adds, "We take turns. Right now he's directing but just wait when it's his turn... he's going to have to make macaroni and cheese for every potluck (group dinner)."
