Benefits of doing housework
Mã đề TA102

Trang 2/3 - Mã đề TA102
Children can learn a lot from doing household chores. Doing chores helps children learn about
what they need to do to care for themselves, a house and a family. They learn skills that they can
use in the adult lives, like preparing meals, cleaning, organising and keeping a garden. Being
involved in chores also gives children experience of relationship skills, like communicating clearly,
co-operating and working as a team.
When children contribute to family life, it helps them feel competent and responsible. Even if
they don’t enjoy the chore, when they keep going they get the feeling of satisfaction that comes with
finishing a task.
Sharing housework can also help families work better and reduce family stress. When children
help out, chores get done more quickly, and parents have less to do. This frees up time for the
family to do fun things together.
In order to get children involved in chores, it is best to start by choosing chores that works for
children’s ages and abilities. Chores that are too hard can be frustrating, and chores that are too easy
might be boring. If children are old enough, we can have a family discussion about chores. This can
reinforce the idea that the whole family contributes to how the household runs.

A. learning life skills B. looking after the family

A. join a team B. become a co-operator
