In fact, mother is a true unsung hero because without her, the welfare of your life and other members of your family will not be fulfilled. Remember, your mother has worked very hard to do many things at the same time just to meet your needs. In return for his services, why not try to contribute to making his life easier?
Step
Method 1 of 4: Keeping Your Room Clean
Step 1. Always keep your room clean
Make sure your room is always neat and clean. Wash your bedding (pillowcases, sheets, and blankets) at least once a week to keep them clean and smell good, and always make your bed when you wake up in the morning. If you have a trash can in your room, always throw it away when it's full!
If you have a sibling, encourage and/or help her to tidy up and clean her room
Method 2 of 4: Doing Some of Your Mom's Duties
Step 1. Find out what tasks your mother can do
In fact, children of a certain age and ability can already be given the responsibility to cook dinner, you know! If you're still not old enough, there's nothing wrong with helping your mother cook a simple lunch for your younger siblings.
Step 2. Ask your mother for help
Chances are, he or she can recommend a variety of jobs that are appropriate for your age and abilities.
Always remember that you are helping the whole family, including yourself. In other words, looking after the welfare of the household is not only your mother's job. In fact, even toddlers can be trusted with very basic and age-appropriate responsibilities, you know
Method 3 of 4: Changing Approaches to Doing Housework
Step 1. Have a “Mother's Day” to help your mother rest
On that day, don't let your mother do any work! Instead, divide the household chores into every family member in your house and allow your mother to relax.
Step 2. Make it a routine
Remember, your mother has worked very hard to meet your daily needs. Therefore, repay the favor by asking each family member to maintain the duties and responsibilities they have on Mother's Day onwards.
Step 3. Don't hesitate to help your mother keep her happy
Step 4. Help your mother if asked
If your mother asks you to do something, don't complain! After all, your mother wouldn't ask for your help if she didn't really need it, would she?
Method 4 of 4: Types of Housework You Can Do
Step 1. Place the dirty dishes in the sink
Make sure you always wash your own dishes after eating!
- You can also put dirty cutlery in the dishwasher. Start the engine after all the space inside is completely filled.
- Empty the dishwasher afterwards. This task should be the responsibility of anyone passing through the dishwasher at that time.
Step 2. Help your mother do the laundry
At least do your own laundry. Ideally, children should start getting used to washing their own clothes from the age of 8 years. If you don't know how to remove stains from clothes, ask your mother. If your clothes are not stained, immediately put them in the washing machine, pour some detergent, then turn on the machine and wash them thoroughly. After all, the existence of a washing machine makes washing activities as easy as snapping their fingers, in contrast to ancient people who still had to wash clothes using their hands!
Step 3. Help your mother prepare dinner
Who knew you might actually be a chef? If all this time there is a menu of dishes that you are good at, try offering to cook it before dinner.
Step 4. Take care of your pet
Again, pets are the responsibility of everyone in your household. So don't hesitate to give him something to eat and drink, and take him for walks whenever possible. By doing so, your pet can get closer and trust you, you know!
Step 5. Clean your floor
Vacuuming and mopping floors isn't as difficult as moving mountains. As well as being easy to do, both can make a significant difference in your home! Enjoy the work and the results.
Tips
- Help your mother by doing work that feels familiar to you and you can complete without your mother's supervision and/or help.
- If your sibling is willing to help with your work, don't be angry or upset if they make a mistake. Help them as they help you too!
- Surprising your mother by providing a variety of simple assistance will leave a pleasant feeling, you know! You can even create a book containing various coupons to do homework for him.
- Help your mother without being asked or prompted. Trust me, he will feel grateful for it.
- Make your mother happy. Taking advantage of your mother's presence will make things easier, but try to fight the habit! Show how much you appreciate him, and help him whenever needed. Remember, your favor could be the last thing you do for him!
- Don't be afraid to do something before your mother tells you to! On the other hand, don't be afraid to ask for help if you feel you need it. Know that your mother will always be there for you and therefore you should always be there when she is needed.
- Watch your sister at home.
- If your sibling feels angry or upset with you, try to respond in a gentle manner and don't get into a fight.
Warning
- Don't try to "surprise" your mom by doing a job you've never done before. If you don't do it right, you will only add to the work. Instead, stick to the light, simple jobs you already do. If you want to try something new, at least do it under your mother's supervision and assistance.
- Who said your mother would find it helpful if you were constantly bossing your siblings around the house? In fact, doing so will only make your mother even more stressed, especially since usually, you and your sibling will fight afterward. If you know this could make your brother angry or upset, ignore him and leave the responsibility for nagging him to your mother.
