This book teaches children that everyone does chores. As you read this book with your child, make sure the child understands the chores you and other members of the family do. Here are some more hints to make children's chores less of a burden and more a part of family life: When children do chores, they are benefited in may ways.They gain a sense of responsibility. Completing tasks improves their self esteem. They learn the value of work and teamwork. They learn life skills that will serve them their whole lives. They gain an understanding of the effort it takes to maintain a clean, orderly home. Getting children to do chores can feel like an uphill battle. However, with the right approach, it can eventually become a smooth and even enjoyable process. Some things that help children learn to do chores are:Setting expectations at an early age. Make sure to frame the chores and a natural part of life and not a punishment. Make the chores fun. Turn tasks into games, such as "Who can clean their rooms the fastest?". Add music to focus energy and attention. Make a reward system such as stickers. Keep in mind it is important to emphasize the intrinsic value of completing chores, such as "Isn't it nice to play in a clean room." Lead by example. Make sure you frame things you do around the house as chores, "This morning I have three chores: Make breakfast, do the dishes, and sweep the kitchen." Show a positive attitude about housework. Give children a sense of control over their work. Let them pick what to do first, or when to start the chore. Eventually, children will see chores as a part of family life, and not as a burden.
Autorenporträt
David E. McAdams is a storyteller, educator and lifelong explorer of ideas. With a career that spans decades in mathematics education and a deep love for writing, David has authored a wide array of books that blend learning with imagination. His work ranges from playful puzzle collections for young children to detailed explorations of mathematical constants, vocabulary guides and interactive learning resources-all designed to open doors to discovery. David's journey began in the classroom, where he spent time teaching high school math and discovering a truth that would guide his work ever after: children learn best when they're engaged, curious and having fun. Over time, he noticed a critical gap in math education-students were struggling not just with concepts, but with the language of math itself. That insight led him to create All Math Words Dictionary, a comprehensive and kid-friendly resource to strengthen math vocabulary and improve comprehension. But David didn't stop there. He began to write math-inspired books for young readers, books that delight as they teach. In One Penny, Two, a magical penny-doubling story unfolds with charm and wit. In What Is Bigger Than Anything?, children are introduced to the mind-stretching idea of infinity. His My Favorite Fractals and Geometric Nets Project Books invite children to explore patterns, numbers and geometry in tangible, joyful ways. David's books are often playful, poetic and themed with real-world wonder: dinosaurs, fairy tales, space, stuffed animals, hide-and-seek, even swing sets. Each story or puzzle is crafted not only to teach, but to spark imagination. His recent projects include a collection of hundreds of math puzzles for six-year-olds and a themed series that blends math with everything kids love: ice cream cones, treasure hunts, magic tricks and more. His work has been translated into several languages, including Bengali, making his joyful approach to learning accessible to even more children around the world. Whether he's counting stars or exploring the digits of Pi, David brings a deep sense of care and curiosity to every page. Now retired from teaching, David enjoys gardening and the creative joy of writing. He continues to write daily, constantly dreaming up new ways to help children see the beauty of math, the power of language and the magic of asking, "What if?"
