A few months ago I started giving Annley chores to do around the house. It drags the chores out longer for me but Annley is learning how to help.
When I first decided to have Annley start helping with the chores, I was worried it would turn into a power struggle.
Then I remembered that she is an attention seeker.
All I have to do is give lots of praise and do a couple of cheers and she is more than willing to help.
Her chores include;
Laundry- loading the washer, putting clothes in the dryer, taking clothes from the dryer and putting them in the “big chair” and now we are working on putting her clothes away.
Dishes- Unloading the silverware and other unbreakable dishes.
Cleaning her room and play area.
So far she is more than willing to help feels very proud that she is helping. I am going to enjoy eagerness to help while it lasts.

Oh my gosh, how is she old enough to do all that. Last time we saw her she was barely walking. Next thing you know, she'll be off driving!! Slow down kiddo!
What a good girl. And there's a lot more chores where those came from. :)
