Do your kids help you clean the house in the summer? Or during the school year? Or both? There are lots of different philosophies on kids and chores, especially for summertime.
I know many parents get overwhelmed keeping up with cleaning, while also taking care of their kids all day, and trying to spend time making memories together.
So it can be helpful to have your kids chip in and help clean the house. It's also a great life learning experience and it teaches them to be more responsible. Summertime can be a great opportunity to help your kids learn some new tasks too because they have time to practice them and gain mastery and independence.
