Welcome to Housework for Children - we are thrilled you are here and hope by the end of the course you will feel empowered to lead your children into running the household with you.

We wonder if any of these sound familiar:

"My kids are in the world of their own. I work tirelessly, at my job and then at home. All they are interested in is screens and friends. Would it kill them to lend a hand with chores every now and then?"

"My child used to love "helping" me around the house when they were a toddler. That's the irony, isn't it? At first they want to but can't really do anything properly, and later they don't want to. I've got another little one eager to help. How do I not let them lose their enthusiasm? And is there a way to go back to helpfulness with my eldest?"

"I expect my child to clean their bedroom and put their clothes in the laundry at least sometimes, but we have constant battles over it. Is it too much to ask? I know my friend just pays her kids to do chores, but I don't feel like it sends the right message. This is definitely not how I was brought up, but also, I don't want to be fighting about it all the time."

Chores become a battleground at many homes, and parents are often losing the battle. An estimated 76% of UK parents say their children do not help out with the cleaning at all (2017). And yet there is nothing more natural than looking after each other and our shared space together as a family. In this course, we show you how to tap into kids' natural helpfulness even when there is no sign of it on the surface anymore, get a better understanding of what motivates children and strenghten your relationship.
