No more terrible twos!

Real mum Sunita Chand tells us about the fun ways she gets her tot involved with household chores

None of us anticipated a situation like this, where most of us are working from home, the schools and day-cares are closed, and the kids are all at home 24/7. While it is a joy to have them around all the time, it can also get very exhausting. Well, seize the moment, I say! I encourage you to use this opportunity, which will eventually help you and your child even when things get back to normal.

Most of us have found that our household chores’ list have only increased by the hour, leaving you with almost little to no time for a breather or to spend uninterrupted quality time with your li’l ones. Household chores are a great way to get your kids involved and form good habits which will eventually build their confidence. But at this age, children can really start to become helpful. The earlier they start something the earlier they will be able to master these tasks. Toddlers are actually eager to help, which isn’t always the case when they get older. This is also an effective way to bond with her.
