It is important for children to have chores from an early age so that they learn personal responsibility, help them feel more involved in contributing to the family, giving them a sense of accomplishment and confidence in a job well done as well as helping improve gross motor skills, balance, concentration and self- discipline.
At the beginning of the week, we make a list of chores for our kids and remind them daily and see how they do. At the end of the week, we reward them with allowances that they can spend or save as they like.
Chores are part of our large plan of what we teach our children.
