Imagine if you had to care for your family.This is something many mothers deal with.If your mother has a lot to do around the house, why not help her out?
Step 1: You should keep your own room clean.
Make sure your room is clean.As soon as possible, clean up any messes.It's a good idea to cover your bedding at least once a week to keep it fresh and clean.Before it starts to overflow, empty the trash can.Encourage and/or help your siblings clean their rooms as well.
Step 2: Determine what tasks your mother takes care of.
Depending on your age and abilities, you may be able to make a simple lunch for your siblings, even if you can't cook a fancy dinner.
Step 3: Ask your mom what she needs help with.
She might have suggestions for things you could do for her.You should be aware that you are helping the whole family.Your mom will appreciate your help but it isn't just her job to keep the household running smoothly; it's the responsibility of each person in the house, right down to very basic chores for the toddlers.
Step 4: It is a good idea to organize a "mom's day off" with your family.
Divide the duties your mother would normally do on a certain day among everyone in your family.On that day, have your family do the chores.
Step 5: Keep going!
Your mother is probably working hard for you every day, so she could use your help as often as you can.Ask everyone to stick to their assigned tasks after Mom's Day off.
Step 6: Help your mom, and she will be happy.
Step 7: If your mom asks for it, help her out.
Don't complain if your mother wants you to help with the chores.She wouldn't be asking if she needed help.
Step 8: After eating, put the dishes in the sink to be washed.
Place them in the dishwasher.Set it to wash when you notice it is full.When the dishwasher is done, empty it.Whoever comes across it first will win.
Step 9: There is a possibility that this is not the case.
Do your own laundry at the very least.It is possible for children to take care of their own washing at a young age.If you don't know how to remove stains, ask to learn how.It's as easy as gathering your clothes, adding powder or liquid to the washing machine and setting it at the right wash cycle if the clothes are not stained.The machine does most of the work, unlike 100 years ago when people did it all by hand.
Step 10: Make dinner.
You could be a budding chef.If you are good at one part of dinner or a particular dish, offer to be the person who makes it on a regular basis.
Step 11: Feed, water, walk and groom the household pets.
Everyone in the house is responsible for the pets.Spread the love around because pets become more attached to and trusting of those who care for them.
Step 12: Don't deal with the floors.
It is not hard to vacuum and mop.They are methodical and they are one of the few areas of household cleaning that make a big difference in how a room looks.
