Harvard was surprised to find that whether children do housework has a great influence on their future life.
Scholars of Harvard University once conducted a survey and reached an amazing conclusion: the adult employment rate of children who love housework and children who don't like housework is 15: 1, and the crime rate is 1: 10. Children who love housework have a low divorce rate and a low prevalence of mental illness. Most importantly, housework is closely related to the development of children's motor skills, cognitive ability and sense of responsibility during their growth.

1. Children who love housework will also study better.

Studies have shown that a child's brain grows rapidly within five years after birth, and housework can exercise the development and coordination ability of different parts of the child. For example, folding clothes can exercise small muscles, and because the hand has rich nerve endings, exercising the function of the hand through finger movement and developing the potential of the brain will eventually promote the optimization of the child's brain and indirectly improve the child's learning ability.

2. Increase children's self-confidence.

In the process of doing housework, children can also gain self-confidence and a sense of accomplishment. Although young, not perfect, but in the process of practice, children will find that they have the ability to complete many things, and gain self-confidence.

3. Cultivate children's ability to learn and solve problems.

When children first learn to do housework, there must be times when they can't do it well, but mothers don't need to worry. In the process of practice, children will observe their mothers' practices, and mothers can also demonstrate and explain them step by step, so that children can finish housework by imitating their mothers' actions, so that they can think about "how to do it well" and learn how to solve problems.

Lingxiu s has always advocated that good family education is better than 100 school. Let the baby cultivate the ability to love labor and independence from an early age. Parents will create a good environment and conditions for their children, give them early labor training, and let them do what they can, which will benefit him for life.
