When your children reach this age you know they are no
longer small children. You, as the parent, have already suffered through years
of comments dripping with sarcasm and a child who believes they know so much
more than you.
If you’ve been getting your kids to do chores from an early
age, it should be no trouble to get them to keep on going and adding more
complex chores as they grow older.
Here’s a list of chores for this age group:
Bathe and groom pets
Organise own cupboards including toys
Fold own clothes and put away
Clean bath/ shower after use
Help younger siblings with homework
Iron own clothes (ensure safety training here)
Take out rubbish bins on collection day
Organise recycling efforts
Wash car and vacuum inside
It’s important to remember that the more you involve your
kids in household duties, the more your own time will be freed up to spend with
them. There is always plenty to do to keep your house clean but a family having
time for activities together is also important. If everyone does their share,
their will be more together. You can contact Blendwell Chemicals for all your
