If you’re a parent or caregiver, you likely experience challenges when it comes to chores for your kids. Maybe you dream about your kids willingly cleaning up after themselves, helping with jobs around the home, and even being happy to do it! But reality comes into view when you trip over a random shoe or step on a pile of Legos. It can be frustrating when you remind your kids over and over to tidy up after themselves.
What are realistic ideas for encouraging children to cooperate with household chores? Get tips and strategies for tidying up. (Español).

Child Abuse Prevention Month
Our mobile FRC, Esperanza Movil, protects the health of Pierce County’s Spanish-speaking community.
Thanks to great food bank partnerships with Nourish Pierce County and Lake City Community Church’s The Bread of Life, we travel to sites throughout Pierce County to hand out diapers, hygiene items, and other resources to people who need them.
Esperanza Movil offers workshops that promote family and community well-being. This summer, they hosted sewing, painting, and piñata workshops.
Learn more about upcoming workshops or resources at facebook.com/esperanzamovilfrc.
