When I showed them the list they seemed cynical at best. Sure sign that they're growing up! I refused to let my enthusiasm were off cajoling them to at least try it.
It was a slow start (why do we have to put our shoes inside? Whey do we always have to wear chappals. But soon they were running around the house doing stuff, giggling, ticking it off - oh it was fun and they got most of it done.
Of course it's just day 1 and they might/will tire of it and that will be fine, because the idea is NOT to turn them into tiny robots but to get the basic habit in place. It's like 'oh today I forgot to put my tiffin for washing.. Rather than see ma today I remembered to put it for washing.
