Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet
to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions.
Children can learn a lot from doing household chores. Doing chores helps children
learn about what they need to do to care for themselves, a home and a family.
They learn skills they can use in their adult lives, like preparing meals, cleaning, organising and gardening.
Being involved in chores also gives children experience of relationship skills like
communicating clearly, negotiating, cooperating and working as a team. And when
children contribute to family life, they might feel competent and responsible. Even
if they don't enjoy the chore, when they keep going they can feel satisfied that
they've finished the task. And sharing housework can also help families work
better and reduce family stress.
It's best to start by choosing chores that work for children's ages and abilities. [I]
Chores that are too hard can be frustrating or even dangerous - and chores that are
too casy might be boring. [II] Even young children can help with chores if you
choose activities that are right for their age. [III] You can start with simple jobs
like packing up toys, even if it's just putting one or two blocks away. [IV]
It's also important to think about chores or tasks that get your child involved in
caring for the family as a whole. A simple one is getting your child to help with
setting or clearing the table. Jobs like these are likely to give your child a sense of
responsibility and participation. If your child is old enough, you can have a
family discussion about chores. This can support the idea that the whole family
contributes to how the household runs. Children over 6 years old can have a say in which chores they do.
