Mommy Moments – Chore Time

mommy moments

When I was growing up, I never got trained to do chores since we always had household helpers doing this for us… but now that I have my own kids, I want them to learn different house chores. Not only to equip them when they grow up, but also to let them know what responsibility means.

Kyla helps me to fold clothes and keeps them in our closet.

When Kyla was still around 2 years old, we have been training her to keep her toys after she plays with them and to make sure her room is neat before she goes to sleep… Now that she is 5, she knows how to do this by herself already…

Now little Toby is 2 years old (turning 3 soon!) he still needs coaching and lots of encouragement to keep his toys…

He loves to clean the CR walls though!

How about you? Does your kids have favorite chores at home? Join us at Mommy Moments! Just create your post and enter your link at MckLinky!

  4. I believe that it's good to teach our children on how to participate even a small chores in the house at their very young age.Glad to know you started to teach them early to realized what responsibility mean is.Keep it up Mommy.

  15. Justin likes to clean the bathroom, too, when he takes a bath by pouring water on the floor to wash away some dirt that he sees. He also brushes the pail or water basin because they're dirty daw.
