Find Liberation – WITH Kids Chores
Posted by: Christine Mullins in Kids Chores, Kids Housekeeping, Kids MotivationHere is a mother with a challenge… I am sure she is not alone.
She is burdened by the housekeeping and, neither her kids nor her husband are helping with the chores. Sound familiar? Her ideas — in this YouTube video is to take away privileges, money, and even possessions as a way to solve this. Clearly it’s not working. Watch the video below and then my suggestions below. Getting kids chores done and having kids housekeeping be fun is possible…
Dear “North Georgia Peach”,
I’m so glad that you took the time to post your question. After more than fifteen years of research on how to get kids chores done I can show you an easier way.
The idea is to make chores fun – and to train your kids (and husband too!) how to do that. The Children’s Miracle Music game instantly and automatically changes what you might call “chores” into what children see as fun tasks to do. To you, the game becomes a miraculous parenting tool which you can use to train your family on how to be skilled at and have the desire to do their chores WITHOUT you having to nag them. I know! It’s a MIRACLE! You said in your video… “that your children are only expected to do about ten minutes of work each day.”
CHALLENGE - if a chore should only take ten minutes, but you have not designated WHICH ten minutes, then you will probably have to wait for a very long time for your children to decide which ten minutes!
SOLUTION - The Children’s Miracle Music game uses music as a timing mechanism to let your kids know EXACTLY which ten minutes!
I don’t believe that it is wrong for you to expect certain things to be done by each family member every day. Your family members shouldn’t be thinking that the chores they do are to help YOU with YOUR work. The Children’s Miracle Music game automatically transfers exact responsibilities of chores to each person. Now you are able to ask THEM if they would like help learning how to care for THEIR areas.
There’s lot’s more ideas here on how to liberate yourself and your family – to have a happy and fun home atmosphere – where all the chores get done effortlessly. I would love to tell you a thousand more ideas about this. I’ll be writing more on this blog of the life changing research that I’ve found to work for my family and thousands of other families.
Please join the conversation here with questions and comments.
All My Best, Christine
