My boy will turn four next year and I am planning on training him to work on house chores. Mom had been telling me it’s impossible that he would remember how or when to do them. Basically he won’t be able to recognize them. At least, according to mom, it wasn’t until I was 12, that I was able to hold the broom.
But my friend Cindy told me it isn’t so difficult. She introduced me to chore charts which enables me to reward my boy when he performs his work as scheduled and expected. It can also be used to encourage good behavior and instill a systematic behavior in a child. I thought that was an splendid idea! What’s more? These chore charts can be customized and printed for subsequent use. Most of all, they are free!
