The Tidy Drawer Story


One Saturday morning Abby's Mum came upstairs to see Abby in her bedroom. Or tried to.

There was so much mess on the floor she could only poke her head around the door. Abby

sat in the middle of it all reading a book.

"What a tip," Mum said. "You need to have a clear up in here."

"Why?" Abby asked.

"Why?" Mum repeated. "Because things get broken or lost when they're all willy-nilly like

this. Come on, have a tidy up now."

"But I'm very busy," Abby argued, "and it's boring on my own. Can't you help me?"

"No I can't, I'm busy too. But I'll give you extra pocket money if you do a good job."

When Mum came back later all the toys and clothes and books had disappeared.

"I'm impressed," said Mum. "But I'll inspect it properly later."

"It was easy," said Abby. "Can I have my extra pocket money now?"

"All right. Get it out of my change purse. It's in the kitchen tidy drawer."

In the kitchen Abby went over to the dresser and pulled open the tidy drawer. She hunted

for the purse.

"Any luck?" Mum asked.

Abby shook her head.

"It must be lurking at the bottom," Mum said. "Let's have a proper look."

She pulled the drawer out and carried it over to the table. Abby kneeled up on a chair to

look inside. There were lots of boring things like staplers and string but there were lots of

interesting things as well.

"What's this?" Abby asked, holding up a plastic bottle full of red liquid. Mum laughed.

"Fake blood, from a Hallowe'en party years ago. Your Dad and I took you to that, dressed

up as a baby vampire. You were really scary."

"I don't remember that."

Abby carried on looking through the drawer. She found some vampire teeth, white face

paint, plastic witchy nails and hair gel. Mum pulled out a glittery hair band. It had springs

with wobbly balls on the top that flashed disco colours. She put it on her head while she

Page 21
EDSS970 SEM2, 2009. Assignment 2 Preeti Singh 220061488
carried on looking through the drawer. Abby found some sparkly hair elastics to match the

hair band. She made her Mum put lots of little bunches all over her head so she looked really

silly.

"I remember this," Abby said as she pulled out a plastic bag. "This is from my pirate

party." Inside there was a black, false moustache and some big gold earrings.

Household chores are a big pain, especially when you find yourself doing them
alone most of the time. Without any help, household chores can become
frustrating and overwhelming and make you irritable and cranky when you come
home from a long day of work and have to do them all. It's important that your
family help out so that tensions stay at a minimum in the household and families
get along in harmony. There are ways to convince your family that you need
help with household chores and ways to motivated them to assist you everyday
so that you are not doing them alone.

Instructions

1. Step 1

Explain to your spouse and children that you need their help doing
household chores and how much it would mean to you if each of them took
on a few chores each day. Let them know that it's tiring and frustrating for
you to come home from work everyday and have to clean the house alone.
Explain that there are household chores that need done on a daily basis that
you are sometimes too exhausted to do alone and that them helping you
with the chores would make you less irritable and tired, and give you more
time to spend with them.

2. Step 2

Make a list of chores that need done and assign each family member a
chore to do each day. Have your family help with the chore list by deciding
for themselves what chores they would like to take on. Give them the option
first of choosing their household chores. If this becomes a hassle, assign the
chores yourself and give chores to your spouse as well. Have one child take
on sweeping and mopping, another do dishes, and your spouse to take on
laundry or bathroom duty. Do the household chore list however you see fit
and fair for all family members. Take time to talk out the chore list so that no
family member feels they are getting more chores than another.

3. Step 3

Page 24
EDSS970 SEM2, 2009. Assignment 2 Preeti Singh 220061488
Praise family members for helping you do chores and thank them often for
doing their best. Even if your family does not do the chores the exact way
you would like, try to let this go. If you criticize the way your family does the
household chores, they will be less apt to want to help. Always praise them
for helping even if it is not the way you would do things. Never go over the
chores again. Try to let your family take control of their own individual
chores. Let them know what a great job they've done and how much you
appreciate their help. Tell your family that them helping with the household
chores has taken a huge burden off of you and that your thankful to them.

4. Step 4

Give your family rewards for helping with chores. Children can get stickers
to collect for small rewards later such as movie time, video game time, small
toys, or ice cream. Reward your spouse for helping by cooking him dinner,
spending alone time together, or doing something sweet in return for him.
Show your family that doing good deeds comes with rewards. This teaches
children that they earn when they work and helps your spouse know that he
is appreciated for his work. Even if you just give the reward of time with you,
because normally household chores takes that away, then you will be
showing your family how much helping with the chores has lightened your
load.

How to Get Children to Help with Household Chores

By Shenison
User-Submitted Article

Teaching kids to help out around the house is an important step to teaching
them responsibility. Not only will you be getting some help with the household
chores but your child will get a feeling of accomplishment and belonging.

Page 25
EDSS970 SEM2, 2009. Assignment 2 Preeti Singh 220061488
1. Start early. The younger the child is when he is first encouraged to take
some responsibility for the house he lives in the more accepting he will be of
the concept.
2. Step 2

Select an age appropriate job. A four year old can put a fresh trash bag in
after you have taken the full one out. A six year old can empty the silverware
from the dishwasher or clear the plates from the table after dinner. By eight,
most children can empty a dishwasher. Emptying the dishwasher is also
good training for loading the dishwasher later on. Older children can sort
laundry, vacuum, or take over the responsibilities of a family pet.

3. Step 3

Make it clear to the child that everyone in the house has to help to keep
things running smoothly. Encourage him by telling him how much his work
has helped you.

4. Step 4

A reward system is a very useful. Younger children can be rewarded with


stickers or stars on a calendar for each day they performed their task. Older
children can receive an allowance but be careful how you handle it. It's good
to say "Now that you are responsible enough to handle some chores you
are old enough to get an allowance." It is not good to say "I will pay you two
dollars every time you do your chore." Paying your child for a chore sends
the message that she is working for the money and you will soon find
yourself paying her for everything she does.

5. Step 5

When your child is overwhelmed by a busy schedule or a school project


offer to take over the chore for a few days. Be sure to tell him why you are
helping him out. Say "I can see you are really busy right now. I'll empty the
dishwasher for you tonight so you can work on your project." This gives him
the message the job is still his, but you are a family and should help each
other out when necessary.

6. Step 6

Finally, keep in mind that a job you have to do over and over becomes
tedious. Once your child has mastered a few jobs around the house make a
chore schedule and rotate the responsibilities among all the household
members.
