We implemented a Saturday chores system in our family this year. Through many false starts and bumpy weekends with a frustrated mom and equally disgruntled kids, we came upon a solution that leaves the house clean, keeps parents from nagging, and ends with kids who aren't burnt out: we do a power hour of chores all together. Doing the chores all at the same time and having a treat to look forward to at the end helps make spring cleaning a memorable and (somewhat) more palatable family affair. Want to try this in your home? Here are some super simple, kid-friendly tasks that will make your kids feel like valuable members of the team. |

Offer your baby good sources of choline, such as beef, eggs and spinach, on a regular basis to help build a healthy brain. Learn more about the benefits of beef for expecting parents. |

| Hey, Maxwell, I'd love to hear from some other parents about small victories they've had and helpful tips at home they've figured out. Would you ever do that? — Hanna |

| Dear Hanna,
I THINK THAT'S A GREAT IDEA, and, as someone who gets to go on and on and on sometimes, I'd love to throw open the door and see what some of you might have to share that could help us all out. Unfortunately, we don't have comments on Cubby yet, so there's no easy way to talk back, SO please give it a think:
What small victory at home have you had in raising your children that has taught you something that you'd like to share? Please include a picture if it's helpful! |
