June 1, 2007, Newsletter Issue #66: Siblings as Mommy's Helpers

Tip of the Week

Sometimes all you need to do it look around your own home for mother's little helpers. Give your own children a chance to become mommy's helper. Try giving them small tasks at first like sweeping, vacuuming the floor or dusting furniture. Have your older children read to the younger ones and give mom a break. They can also participate in other activities around the home, depending on the age difference between the children. If you have a pre-teen child, a younger child and newborn your oldest can provide a lot of help with the middle child as you care for their new sibling.
