Parents should give their children tasks to do so they learn to become responsible. The results of a study conducted by the University of Minnesota showed that children who performed housework had better feelings of responsibility and self-worth years later. Children who feel good about themselves are more respectful of others.
Even if my son is only 3 years and 4 months old, he already knows how to put away his toys, but he does this only when he’s in a good mood. LOL! There are two household chores, though, that he would do anytime: dusting and sweeping the floor.
Does your kid enjoy doing housework, too?

so sweet of him!!! when my boys are way too young and they try to sweep the floor, I have to be on the lookout because they might find something on the floor that will end up to ther tummy. (^_^)
Keeping toys is always a good introduction to household chores. I did that with Evan too. As for other housework he prefers mopping than sweeping, maybe because he can play with water at the same time :)
Justin is so adorable with the duster and broom. I very much agree that kids should be taught kaagad on how to be responsible. By the way mommy, thank you for the birthday greeting :D
wow naman.. ang super bait ng anak mo Tet. The same with my kids when they were still young I started teaching them to be responsible. My little boy now knows where to put his dirty clothes and keeps his room clean. I am glad my daughter too is always helping me out in some works in the kitchen.
