Making the Bed - Children are taught how to prepare their bedding on their cots and how to fold them up after use in school. At home, they can do the same with some adult support.

Dressing - Allow your children to choose their own outfits, and ask them what attire would fit the weather. Encourage children to try to zip and fasten buttons on their own to develop fine motor skills.

Calendar and Weather - This is something we do everyday in school, which can be easily replicated at home. Either have children rip off a page if it's a daily calendar, cross out a number if it's a monthly calendar, or write in a number if it's a blank calendar. Create a weather chart with your children, and have them identify the weather each day.

Cleaning - Whether it is cleaning an area in their room, helping with vacuuming, or just putting away their toys, clean up instills a sense of responsibility to the household (and to society when they are grown).

Taking Care of Living Things - Watering the plants, helping with gardening, or feeding the pet are all good ways to foster positive relationships with other living things. Children learn about necessities of life, growth, and symbiosis.

Setting the Table - When children set the table, it cultivates many basic math skills such as one-to-one correspondence, number sense, spatial awareness, patterns, classification, shapes, etc. Allow the children to clear the table or at least their dishes.
