How to teach children to love work. Should it or not? What do you think? For work to bring joy, oddly enough, you need to teach children to work diligently. If a person does a job carelessly, then he cannot enjoy it. For example: Look at how your child washes the dishes. He does it just to get rid of him, carelessly or tries. If you see negligence, then state your requirements for him in detail. “Wash the dishes thoroughly and put them away, wash the sink, wipe the faucet, the refrigerator, sweep the floor, straighten the towels, arrange the chairs evenly, straighten the tablecloth, put out a bowl of fruit.” Well, that's roughly what you should say to a child. And then offer to look at it and evaluate the quality of your work. And in this way demand cleaning for a while. And it turns out that the child begins to receive joy from his work. Children need to be taught this. Give clear, detailed instructions. And this method also creates motivation to work. The next point is how to teach a child to work. It's a good attitude to work. How do you perceive the work, what message do you give? Is this a burden that needs to be carried or is it something pleasant. More often than not, children take this from their mother. For example, look how you cook breakfast? How do you feel, how do you behave, what do you say? This is a very clear little moment that can show your attitude to work, and a consequence of what you teach your children. Further, each of you does not like to be put under pressure or driven into rigid boundaries. We feel this very well. So don't put too much weight on them or push them. It’s better to learn to plan in advance and distribute time and energy. It is important to remember that the work should not be very easy, but also excessively difficult. But sometimes you need to give a task that the child must work on. From completing such tasks, the child’s self-esteem increases, he feels joy for himself. And if he feels the importance of work, then this will be greatly beneficial for the children. Remember, children really want to be useful! (just like adults). Sometimes it’s difficult for a child without help. Therefore, first train him, mentor him, and then trust him and step aside. So that he feels responsible for completing the task. When the child does it, he has a sense of self-esteem. And of course, a reward. Here, for the child, the reward is inner satisfaction from the work done. And do not skimp on parental praise. She encourages children to try harder. You can reward with gifts and money, just be fair and give what is due. Good luck to you!
