Wisdom from the Queen Bee Mrs. Starlin
One final tip for teaching kids responsibility (source: Barzvi):
Teach consequences- Learning to take care of things helps build a sense of responsibility for kiddos actions. Let your child know that they won't be able to play with crayons and scissors the next day if they leave a messy table form the art project today. Then follow through. If they shirk their responsibility take away the supplies. The more you enforce the rules, the more likely they will clean the mess up without asking (or at least without whining).
"It is ultimately your child's choice to not put a toy away," says Barzvi. "Parents are afraid to let kids suffer, be sad or angry, but if we always solve children's problems, they will not learn to be responsible as they grow up."
