If it feels like you are the one doing most of housework in your home，it may be time to share it with your children.Giving kids chores（家庭雜務(wù)） not only helps you relax，but also encourages teamwork and discipline.They get to understand they are playing an important role in the family.
   "Most of the problems here come from the words we use.There's a big difference between 'doing chores' and just 'helping out' around the house." says Sarah Ockwell，author of Toddler Calm. "Chores are a normal part of everyday life and it is important that children learn to understand this as young as possible.Children need to understand that they are expected to do something for all parts of family life，" she adds.
   Chores may make them consider the time you spend on keeping the home clean and tidy.They may be a little more thoughtful to care about your work，perhaps even putting their dirty clothes in the washing basket rather than just put them on their bedroom floor.
   Children are pretty egocentric，and they only think about themselves a lot of the time.However，they also like to receive praise for their actions.So doing chores gives them the chance to be helpful and do something for others but not just for themselves.
   It's good for a child's self-esteem to be given a task to do，even if it's making their beds.Chores give a child confidence in their own abilities and teach them skills they'll need in later life，like using the washing machine and cleaning the toilet.
"It also teaches them responsibility，and how to look after themselves，" says Liz who's also the author of Toddler Calm. "These are important life skills，not least in how to not be a spoiled，selfish child!"
