Parent Tip: Helping with Chores
Here’s the tip for today:
Whenever I’m doing a job around the house, I try to involve my children. For example, I might say, “Who wants to help me unload the dishwasher?” or “Who wants to make dinner tonight?” Thirty percent of the time they get really excited and want to help. Plus I make a big deal for the rest of the day about how important their contribution was to the household.

From now will I will post Parent Tips from real Moms/Dads on Thursdays. I will gather them over the internet and if you want to contribute please send me an email to soleflor at gmail dot com or send me a DM to @soleflor if the tip has less than 140 letters and I will publish them. If you have a blog I will link to it, if you don’t no problem send me the Tip and I will post it with your name.
