What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood | Parenting Tips From Funny Moms

Should Kids Do Chores?


Listen Later

Engaging in regular household chores is a great way for kids to develop important life skills. But how can we take the time to teach kids how to do these chores while not making laundry day any more hectic than it already is?

Amy and Margaret discuss:

  • How regular chores help kids develop important skills
  • Why "noticing" what needs to be done is just as important as actually doing it
  • How to pick your battles when it comes to involving little kids in chores

  • Here are links to some of the resources mentioned in the episode:
