Do you dream of having a child who naturally pitches in around the house without being asked? In this episode, Dr. Cathryn explores the impactful role of chores in a toddler's development and how these early experiences can shape such proactive behavior.

Chores are more than just tasks; they're opportunities for toddlers to build self-esteem, feel valued, and develop a sense of belonging. We dive into how age-appropriate chores play a crucial role in nurturing emotional and social growth in young children.

We discuss the inherent eagerness of toddlers to help and how parents can harness this to teach valuable lessons about teamwork and responsibility. From simple activities like tidying up toys to setting the table, these tasks are stepping stones in a child's journey toward independence and empathy. Join us as we provide insights and strategies for parents to encourage their toddlers' involvement in household chores, setting the stage for them to become responsible, initiative-taking individuals in the future.
