Here are some chores your kids must know
You might want to protect your kids from all dangers and difficulties. However, the truth is that it is not possible. Once your kid steps out from the comfort of your home to carve their own identity in the world, you cannot be with them every time. All you can do is prepare them in advance.
For your teen to be independent and successful, it is crucial to help them develop all the skills they need to face the challenges life throws in front of them. For technical knowledge, there are schools and colleges, but for life skills, they solely rely on you. Teaching them basic life skills before they head for their college and step into the real world, will instill confidence in them and make them more responsible. Here are 5 life skills that are important for your kids to acquire at the right time.
Cooking skills
At home, you were there to prepare tasty treats for your kids. But when they go out to pursue their dreams, you won’t be there with them to make their favourite food. To make them self-sufficient it is crucial to teach them basic cooking skills. Start slowly by including them in the daily meal preparation and cooking. Get them a cookbook that they can use to prepare basic meals.
Time management skills
At home, you were there to help your kid manage their schedule. But as they grow up, they need to learn to plan their day themselves. The transition from school to college day can be quite overwhelming for kids. A structured day plan will help to prioritise their work, set a routine and succeed.
Money management skills
Kids should know how to manage their money responsibly. With age, their monthly allowance increases, and so is their need. They also come across different means to spend the money like hanging out with friends, fancy clothes and others. Teaching money management to teens helps them practice decision-making skills.
Cleaning and laundry skills
Maintaining hygiene and doing their laundry is another skill that kids should learn at a young age. Start with sorting out the colour and types of fabric. Why some clothes need to be washed alone and how to use detergent, fabric softener, bleach, and stain remover. Make them help you in doing the laundry at home, clean their room and fold their clothes.
Basic first aid skills
Fever, cold and headaches are some common health concerns. When living alone kids must know what to do in such a situation. What medicines to take and when to book an appointment for a medical check. These are some basic things kids must know about when living away from home.
