Teach Children to Be Tidy

If we want to prepare our children for the real life, we could not forget to teach them to be tidy.

We can start at their age of three years with the simplest works in the kitchen like tasting of food and holding tools is. It is very useful for kids, because
1, they have feeling they are useful,
2, they see using things - action and reaction,
3, they can compare sizes, colors, flavors and temperatures,
4, they see you as working person and so the work become the normal part of their life.
Three years old children can start to learn tidy up after themselves. But do not forget, that they also learn from watching others. Be careful and always tidy up after yourself. You can help them at the start and explain they feel more comfortable in the clean room.

Simple houseworks are also good for developing of children skills. You can give them small broom and shovel to sweep the floor and throw rabbish to the bin. Small childre can collect the dirty clothes nd put them to loundry bin. Always survey their work! If you want to have fun, you can teach kids to count stuff in the kitchen.

Five and six years old children can wipe the dust, water the flowers, set the table and help in the kitchen. Kids use to protest when you ask them to do some works, but do not forget that learning houseworks is good for them. And another benefit - if your kids help you with work, you have time to be together and so you have opportunity to talk with them and know them better.

If parents want sweeping, tiding up, shopping and cleaning child´s things, it is not a crime, but parent´s due and wisdom. Your child will not be lazy and messy in the future.
