Here are a few ways to motivate(激发)children to do chores.
Children always watch their parents and learn how to act from them, so the parents must set a good example and take chores seriously. This motivates children to do chores, too.
Decide what kinds of chores children do. For younger children, give them easy work, like putting away their toys.
Tell children about the importance of doing chores. Knowing the importance of chores helps to motivate children to do them.
Make a list of chores for children. When children finish the chores on the list, parents can reward(奖励) them by giving them a prize. A chore list also gives children a sense of pride when they finish all their chores.
Give children some money to do more chores. But it is not the best way. It's best to make children feel that doing chores is the work that they should do.
A. Set good examples in the family. B. Discuss the importance of doing chores and how they help the whole family. C. Make children do chores unhappily. D. Giving money for more chores can also work. E. As the children get older, make them do more difficult chores. |
