Because young children are still learning how to predict what will happen, they generally don’t see that days follow patterns. Although you know that the same thing happens every morning (e.g., breakfast, get dressed, brush teeth, put on shoes and coat), your daughter does not. She may have her own ideas about how she wants to spend her morning, and it’s unlikely her plans fit into your day. Because she has developed the skills to have opinions and voice them, but not the skills to understand daily routines, she’s likely to become frustrated when you try to redirect her or tell her what to do. By creating a predictable daily routine, you’ll find you can eliminate a lot of tantrums.
Whether a child is years from being able to read or just beginning, they can understand pictures. If your child is finishing a meal and sees the next picture is shoes, he knows when he’s done eating he should go get his shoes. Children, especially toddlers, feel pride when they do something independently. A visual routine lets you capitalize on that desire for independence.
♥ TEACH SELF-RELIANCE - Chore charts help kids think for themselves. Putting their little brains to work and needing fewer reminders from Mom & Dad to do the right thing.
♥ AVOID POWER STRUGGLES & MELTDOWNS - Having a chore chart your kid can repeatedly visualize and follow helps make things less stressful by setting clear goals they KNOW they need to stick to.
♥ LET THEM SHINE - For young kids, checking off each task as they complete feels great! It's something they can be proud of. Being so, it helps them associate good emotions to the habit of being productive throughout the day.
