Proudly Presents

By Jessica Quas Suriano’s debut on the high school varsity stage

was awesome as the Bergen County Catholic con-

quered nationally-ranked grapplers from around

the nation and defeated Austin Assad of Becksville

(OH) to capture the 106-pound gold medal Beast of

the East Tournament in Delaware, becoming the first

Crusader to accomplish that feat.

As a result the Paramus resident vaulted into the

No. 1 ranking in the nation at 106-pounds and followed

with a gold medal performance in the BCCA George

Jockish Bergen County Tournament by registering a

2-1 decision over Don Bosco’s Kyle Bierdumpfel, who

placed fourth in the Beast of the Beast competition,

in double overtime.

gious Santelli Girls Fencing Tournament contested

at Voorhees High School in Glen Gardner was fueled

by veteran seniors Cindy Oh and Anna Parzecki along

with junior Allison Lee. It was the first championship

banner the Lady Highlanders ever captured in the

season-opening event that began in 1980.

Oh went 7-0 in the first round and 6-0 in the second

to finish 13-0 in saber while Parzecki was 11-2, go-

ing 7-0 in the second round as the duo will continue

their student/athlete careers at Northwestern Uni-

versity in the Big Ten Conference. Lee completed the

team’s first place performance in the saber squad

bracket, going 12-1.

Now in his 18th season as the River Dell’s girls basketball head coach, Lou Wejnert won his 400th career game on January 3rd of this year.

Wejnert Continuing to Build Success at River Dellthree years. While the Golden Hawks lost two of them, win-ning in 1997, Wejnert’s tenure was off to a fl ying start and has never looked back. River Dell was in the county title in 2002 but lost to Immaculate Heart Academy.

And with that early suc-cess, Wejnert has continued to build on that and the River Dell team is always one that is mentioned as a threat to win a league title, Bergen County title and state title.

The River Dell girls team has always been a threat to win a state title and defeated Glen Rock in 2010 to win the Group 2 North 1 state title, before los-ing to Chatham in the Group 2 semi-fi nals. The last two sea-sons the Lady Golden Hawks have been foiled in winning a sectional title to Pascack Hills (2011) and Pequannock last season.

This season has been like many of the other seasons for River Dell as they started the season at 7-1. “They were playing well together and good things will happen,” said Wejnert.

And for Wejnert he credits

catch you,” joked Wejnert.Before coming to River Dell

Wejnert had coached at sev-eral schools including a stint as head coach at then Jersey City State College which is now New Jersey City University in Jersey City.

But the rigors of college bas-ketball and having children pushed Wejnert to coach high school basketball or referee basketball games.

And Wejnert’s tenure as head coach for the Lady Golden Hawks got off running as his fi rst team went 26-3, only los-ing in the fi nals of the Joe Poli Tournament, Bergen County Tournament and the state sec-tional fi nals.

After that season the Golden Hawks went 26-1 including being one of the few Bergen County teams to go undefeated during the regular season that included winning the Bergen County title. “That team was extraordinary and it was like women going up against girls that year,” said Wejnert about the 1996-97 team.

In all River Dell was in the Bergen County fi nals for three straight years in Wejnert’s fi rst

crop of parents have been ter-rifi c including running a Hoops 4 Autism tournament at River Dell to start the basketball sea-son that collected more than $4,000 to help boost autism awareness.

His teams rank up with Pas-cack Valley’s girls hoops pro-grams coached by Jeff Jasper, one of the few longer tenure coaches than Wejnert in the county. “We want to be in the mix and be in the champion-ship games,” said Wejnert about the goal every season at River Dell. “We’ve had some good battles with them (Pas-cack Valley) over the years.”

And during his 18 years We-jnert has become friends with Jasper and admitted that he modeled his program off of the Pascack Valley program. “I did model my program af-ter his with the work during the offseason,” said Wejnert. “We have worked in the offsea-son and lots of basketball like them.”

Wejnert admitted that he will never catch up to Jasper’s more than 900 victories. “I al-ways tell him that if I can coach the rest of my life that I can

never thought he would be still coaching 18 years later at River Dell High School.

But there he stood at the be-ginning of January picking up a ceremonial basketball with 400, the number of wins that he has reached and still going, all at the Oradell-River Edge regional high school.

His 400th win came on Janu-ary 3 on the road at Ft. Lee as his Lady Golden Hawks dominated the Bridgewomen, 60-22.

During his long tenure at Riv-er Dell, he has built the Lady Golden Hawks basketball pro-gram into one of the top public high school teams in Bergen County.

And it was in 1995 that he had already lined up basket-ball games to referee when the phone rang for an interview for the River Dell job. “I never had any idea that I would stay this long,” said Wejnert. “I wanted to get back to coaching in-stead of being a referee. I love River Dell. I love the kids and I love the administration.”

Wejnert said that the recent

all the success to his players that have included the likes of Deirdre McCarthy, Lindsay Davis, Samantha Winters, Alyssa May, Breanne Depken, Erin Curotola and Katherine Brock, who just graduated last season among hundreds of others. “I have been very lucky with all the very good basketball players that I have coached,” said Wejnert.

And what it has become more enriching for Wejnert is that his son, Jason, has been coaching with him for 16 of the 18 years. “It has been fun to do this together,” said Lou. “He does everything from scouting to coaching. We do a bad cop, good cop routine in practice. He’s the good cop and I’m the bad cop.”

And what has made Wejnert even prouder is that his for-mer players have turned to the coaching ranks with Da-vis as head coach at North-ern Valley Demarest, Karen Smith as head coach at North Arlington and Curatola as an assistant coach at Pascack

Hills High School among oth-ers. “It’s fun to see the girls be-come coaches,” said Wejnert.

And one big fan of Wejnert is current River Dell Athletic Director Denis Nelson: “Coach Wejnert’s remarkable record of

success as the head girls bas-ketball coach at River Dell High School is a direct result of his dedication and commitment to the talented student-athletes in his program over 18 seasons as of this winter. Lou Wejnert

is an extremely diligent and conscientious coach who gets the most out of his teams and players. His team’s consistent excellence in execution, per-formance and results is a trib-ute to his coaching abilities.”

Kevin Wilkins put the Crusad-ers’ Carmine Goldsack on his back at 4:45 to win the 285-pound bracket.

Don Bosco Prep, with three champions – Luis Gonzalez (120), Luke Farinaro (170) and Zack Chakonis (22) placed third in the team standings while Northern Highlands’ four team effort was tops for a public school. The Highland-ers were led by 160-pounder Nick Gravina who pinned River Dell’s Tyler Kallenesee to be-

tured his third crown when he packed and planted Michael Silano of St. Joseph Regional/Montvale with three seconds remaining in the second period of the 182-pound title match. Laurien Anghelina recorded a surprise for the BC coaching staff as the unseeded grappler coasted to a 10-3 decision over second-seeded Matt Zavistoski of St. Joseph Regional/Mont-vale in the battle for the 130-pound championship.

Finishing in the runnerup team slot was St. Joseph Re-gional/Montvale utilizing his strength in the upper weights. Dominic Carfagno dominated the 195-pound bracket, deck-ing four straight opponents un-til he topped Bergen Catholic’s Christian Jenco to claim the gold medal. In the heavyweight division, the Green Knights’

come only the sixth wrestler to claim four BCT titles. With-out the benefi t of a county champion, River Dell turned in a balanced effort to fi nish in fi fth place.

Northern Valley/Demarest senior Owen Mayer not only was unseeded, he packed up and turned Ridgefi eld Park’s Chris Fitzgerald to the mat in 11 seconds into the 152-pound division, to record the fastest fall of the champion-ship fi nals.

By Dennis WilsonFueled by a quartet of gold

medal performances, Bergen Catholic breezed to the team title in the 53rd Annual BCCA George Jockish Holiday Wres-tling Tournament contested on the campus of Rockland Community College in Suffern (NY) on Sunday, December 30, 2012.

Crusader frosh Nick Suriano, the Beast of the East champi-on, ignited the Bergen Catholic parade of champions when he escaped in the second overtime session to capture the 106-pound title with a 2-1 verdict over Kyle Bierdumpfel of Don Bosco Prep. At 113-pounds, Ty-ler Casamenti pulled out a 3-2 decision over Anthony Ruben-etti of Northern Valley/Demar-est to claim his fi rst BCT crown. Junior Johnny Sebastian cap-

CHECK WITH YOUR PHYSICIAN

Cold air can trigger chest pain or asthma attacks in some people. Before braving the ele-ments, talk to your doctor if you have any medical conditions or concerns about exercising out-doors.

GET SOME SHADESThe glare from snow can

cause snow blindness, so wear sunglasses (polarized lenses are best) to avoid this problem.

days, wear running gloves that wick moisture away. Mittens are a better choice on colder days because your fi ngers will share their body heat.

PAY ATTENTION TO TEMPERATURE AND WIND CHILL

If the wind is strong, it pene-trates your clothes and removes the insulating layer of warm air around you. If the temperature dips below zero or the wind chill is below minus 20, it may be bet-ter to hit the treadmill instead.

AVOID OVERDRESSINGYou’re going to warm up once

you get moving, so you should feel a little bit chilly when you start your run. A good rule of thumb: Dress as if it is 20 de-grees warmer outside than it really is.

DON’T FORGET YOUR HEADWearing a hat will help pre-

vent heat loss, so your circula-tory system will have more heat to distribute to the rest of the body.

WATCH FOR FROSTBITEMake sure you monitor your

fi ngers, toes, ears and nose. They may feel numb at fi rst, but they should warm up a few min-utes into your run.

DON’T STAY IN WET CLOTHES

If you’re wet, change your clothes and get to warm as quickly as possible.

STAY HYDRATEDDespite the cold weather,

you’ll still heat up and lose fl u-ids through sweat. Cold air also has a drying effect, which can increase the risk of dehydra-tion. So keep drinking water.

COLD WEATHER EXERCISINGIt is cold, sometimes wet

and the daylight hours are fi lled with work and family ac-tivities…but there is no need for your outdoor fi tness routine to go into hibernation! Staying active can help beat the winter doldrums, keep you in shape and ready for spring. Here are some guidelines for stay-ing safe while exercising in the cold…

FIND A BUDDYRecruit a friend to exercise

with you. Knowing that some-one is waiting for you will help motivate you! Not to mention safety.

LATHER UPBe sure to wear sunscreen

and use chapstick!

DRESS IN LAYERSStart with a thin layer made of

wicking fabric. Stay away from cotton - it holds the moisture. An outer, breathable layer will can help protect you against wind and precipitation. If it’s re-ally cold, you’ll need a middle layer, such as polar fl eece, for added insulation.

PROTECT YOUR HANDSAs much as 30% of your

body heat escapes through your hands and feet. On mild

More often than not, I get asked “Coach, what are the best exercises to do?” Or “If you were to choose “X” amount of exercises, what would they be?”. There are a plethora of great exercises and varia-tions that my students and I truly love to do. However if I were to boil it down to several movements that are essential to any strength and condition-ing regiment, I would choose 6 Kettlebell exercises and 6 Bodyweight movements.

I’m not saying that these are the ONLY exercises you should do but they all should be included in your workout regiment, no matter what your focus is. These exercises will increase strength, endur-ance, coordination, fl exibility and durability like no others. These exercises will even im-prove your performance with your bench press, deadlift and bar squats, not to mention your physique.

Over the next year, I’ll be putting forth write ups ac-companied by videos on the “Dirty Dozen”. We’ll discuss variations and progressions, especially when considering bodyweight. I’ll discuss each movement in depth and give my reasoning for the selection of each movement.

OK – here’s the list.

KettlebellsThe Kettlebell Swing:

This movement is the root of all Kettlebell Training and one of the great differentia-tors between Kettlebell based training and all other strength developing exercise systems. The Kettlebell Swing “reverse engineers” the practitioner’s hips by developing hip hinge through the pop and lock re-quired to execute the move-ment properly.

The Front Squat: Single

Rack or Bottoms up. Squatting is the most important move-ment for lower body strength. The Front Squat, by virtue of the position of the Kettlebell, requires the complete linkage of the upper and lower body. Tensioning of the trunk (I’m not a fan of the word “core”) and maintaining the bell in the prescribed position requires considerable upper body en-gagement in addition to the tension in the trunk.

The Kettlebell Press: Press-ing heavy weight above your head is very cool and extreme-ly useful. The Kettlebell Press employs full range of motion, full body tension and the active negative motion of the bell.

The Get-up: There is not a single movement that incor-porates more muscles of the body than the Get up, also known as the Turkish Get Up or TGU. This incredible exer-cise is a signature movement of Kettlebell Training. Dynamic tension, balance, fl exibility and body alignment are all devel-oped with the TGU.

The Clean: The Kettlebell Clean is used in a great deal of Kettlebell complexes, racking the kettlebell for Squats and Presses, but it’s an incredibly benefi cial stand alone move-ment. A single arm clean taxes the stabilizers in the trunk as well as reinforcing the tension-ing and relaxing of the body.

The Kettlebell Snatch: This is my favorite of all Ket-tlebell movements. The Kettle-bell Snatch is a ballistic move-ment that develops strength, endurance, speed, coordina-tion and there is no question why this movement is used in both competitions and test-ing as a fi tness barometer. The Kettlebell Snatch V02 Max workout is unmatched in maximizing one’s volume of oxygen uptake.

BodyweightThe Bridge: An ignored

movement in American physi-cal fi tness. Very few athletes, except for wrestlers and gym-nasts, utilize this crucial move-ment. The Bridge is exactly what it’s name connotes. The development of a strong, fl ex-ible spine linking together the upper torso with the trunk and lower limbs. Strong spi-nal erectors are essential to a healthy spine and unhindered movement. Key to athletics, active living and certain voca-tions - not to mention every day living!

Hanging Abdominal: One can do thousands of crunches and buy every gimmicky ab machine on the TV at 2:00am, but nothing will develop your abdominal strength better than the Hanging the Abdomi-nal. Lifting your legs up to your chest or your feet above your head develops and requires sig-nifi cant abdominal strength.

The Pistol (Single Leg Squat): The most diffi cult and benefi cial leg exercise - period. The training en route a butt to heel Pistol develops balance, trunk stability and incredible leg strength. There are weight lifters that can full squat 600 pounds, yet they collapse and

fall over when attempting the Pistol.

The Hand Stand: This is the coolest of all bodyweight exercises. Nothing demon-strates full body control and balance than being able to invert yourself in the middle of a room and hold it there. The progressions building up to the Handstand develop incredible shoulder and trunk strength.

The Pull-up: There is no single exercise that demon-strates and develops upper body strength like the Pull-up. If you can do 20 pull-ups, you are in great shape. I challenge you to show me a person who can do 20 pull-ups and doesn’t have a 6-pack.

The Push-up: The Push-up is my favorite for several rea-sons. There are fun and chal-lenging variations, the move-ment works not only your up-per body but conditions your abdominals and reinforces the total body tensioning. The best thing about Push-ups is that you can do them virtually anywhere that there is a fl oor. Your bedroom, basement or offi ce - anywhere. There is no good reason for you not to do them. Get started now!

Habit One: Let your child

lead you….

In terms of what sport or sports your child wants to play…bear in mind that it may be a sport that you have little personal background in, have little expertise in, and have little interest in…BUT that’s not the point.

It’s supposed to be about YOUR youngster, and if they are attracted to certain sports that you didn’t play or don’t follow, well, that’s okay. It just means you have to spend a little time learning about those sports.

NOW…that doesn’t mean you can’t encourage your child to explore other sports. And indeed you should, When they are just starting out in athletics, you want to expose them to a variety of sports, whether it be soccer, swimming, gymnastics, ten-nis, etc.

there were no sidelines in girls’ lax.

I guess I had never read about that rule. But I should have.

You get the idea. If you want to be supportive and encour-aging of your child in whatev-er sport they play, be proac-tive and take the time to learn the sport with them.

Habit Two: Be Encourag-

ing…know how to pick your

spots with your child

All kids love praise. These days….they want it, expect it, and at times, they get angry if they don’t get it.

As the proud sports parent, you need to praise and sup-port your child at all times. However, the key to effective and meaningful sports praise is to be very specifi c….

Don’t just give them a ge-neric “Great game!” or “Nice job!”…that’s meaningless.

You want to prove to your youngster that not only were you paying close attention at their game, but that you were especially impressed with a particular play. So, tell them: “You know that deke move you made at the end of the fi rst period? That was something special.” Or…”I was especially impressed with that amazing pass you made on that fast break late in the game.”

Kids LOVE that kind of de-tail…and often, once you start the conversation on that tone, they will immediately start to discuss the event in detail with you. That’s a win-win.

Habit Three: Don’t Be

Afraid of Adversity for Your

Child…

Every top athlete who I have ever worked with has encoun-

The Seven HabitsThe Seven Habitsof Highly Effective Sports Parents…of Highly Effective Sports Parents…

Example: my wife and I have three kids, and when they were growing up, they were immediately attracted to such sports as soccer, ice hockey, lax, and swimming.

When I was a kid, I played football, baseball, and basket-ball…I knew about ice hockey, but I never learned how to skate, and thus never played. Soccer didn’t exist in my town, nor did swimming or lax.

So when my kids wanted to play soccer, I found myself going to the local library to learn about the rules and tra-ditions of the game. Tried to learn about and fi gure out the offside rule. Learned about different offensive formations in soccer.

When I went to watch my older daughter play HS lax, one day I was standing off to the side of the fi eld when a ref came over and told me I had to move. I thought I was far from the action and behind the sidelines, but she told me that I had to move because

tered adversity at some point in their career…I just don’t mean they lost a big game. I mean they were cut from a team...or a coach didn’t think they were very good…or they were injured and had to sit out for a long time…

You talk to any pro athlete, and I guarantee you that they will all have their own stories of failures, setbacks — in short, adversity. Nobody gets through a successful athletic career without experiencing setbacks.

But what the top athletes do that most of the others DON’T do is that they perse-vere…that is, they just don’t give up. They feel sorry for themselves for a day or two, but then they resolve them-selves to work harder, to get better, to improve…

That’s how adversity can be used to make youngster into a better and stronger athlete.

Parents need to understand this. It’s a delicate conversa-tion with your child… BUT you have to be careful not to transform yourself into the ultimate helicopter par-ent who intervenes with the coach and complains.

In the long run, that doesn’t help your child. Better yet, what a wonderful feeling to see your youngster working at their game, practicing on their own, motivated by their own sense of drive and pur-pose.

If there’s one major takeway from sports, it’s probably this…how to teach your child how to rely upon oneself to deal with setbacks and ad-versity. Yes, it’s painful — no one wants to see their kid fail. But in the grand scheme of life, it’s also a vital lesson.

ul — no eir kid

scheme lesson.

Habit Four: Learn how to

communicate WELL with

your athlete

This means that as your child grows and gets a little older, you will begin to sense that he or she has their own unique way of both getting ready for a game, and also a distinct style as to how they relax after a game.

What I mean is that many sports parents — knowing full well that their youngster has a big game today — will take it upon themselves to give their young athlete a kind of pre-game pep talk. “Make sure you hustle back on defense”….”don’t waste any open shots”…”these opponents today are good….you need to bring your A game.”

Stuff like this basically is a way for an eager sports parent to blow off their own pre-game anxiety. But instead of helping the child, it only makes them more nervous.

So what do you do? Say very little. Let your child talk. If they have questions, let them ask you. Again, let them lead the way.

Think back — when you were a kid playing sports, did your Dad give you pre-game pep talks? Probably not.

On the way home, avoid the PGA…the Post Game Analy-sis. Don’t make this common mistake. Let the kid bask in the afterglow of the competi-tion. There’s no need for you to give them a break-down of the game.

Habit Five: Utilize the

Praise Sandwich

Parents ask: so, if I can’t do a PGA, how do I get my con-structive criticism to my kid? The Praise Sandwich is the best way…

You’ve heard me describe this before…but trust me, it works…

During a quiet moment in the evening…let’s say your kid plays basketball and has become something of a ball hog…that is, they don’t pass and they like to shoot.

First, a thin slice of praise:It’s remarkable how good

you’ve become at shooting the ball…that’s a great step forward.

Then, a bit of constructive criticism…

But as you score more and more, teams are going to start to double-team you….and if you can learn how to dish the ball off to open teammates…

And now the fi nal bit of praise…you’ll become pretty much a complete force…now only can you shoot but you can also pass.

That’s all you have to say…don’t lean on it…give them a few days for the words to sink in…and then see what hap-pens.

Habit Six: Use a Third-Par-

ty Infl uencer When Needed

Sometimes, a parent will tell me that their youngster really won’t listen anymore to them — that the kid disregards the positive feedback that’s being given to them by the parent.

When that happens, I occa-sionally ask the Mom or Dad if there’s a third party who can

be approached. For example, is there a friend of the family, or perhaps an older HS stu-dent, or even a neighbor who — very much on the sly — can be approached to act as an in-termediary?

By that, I mean the athlete’s parent goes up to the third party, and explains to him that the youngster needs to hear some positive feedback. In short, it’s much more mean-ingful when the high praise comes from a third party out-sider as opposed to Mom and Dad.

Again, you have to be care-ful about this approach…but trust me, when a young ath-lete is told by an outsider that he or she is really making tre-mendous progress, or is really developing into a terrifi c ath-lete, that kind of praise can really serve as a rocket fuel to a kid’s confi dence.

Habit Seven: What’s the Overall Takeaway?

Is it all about just getting a college scholarship? Or turn-ing pro?

I hope not…if it is, then you’ll be missing out on those joy-ous moments in your child’s sports career…moments that can, and should be, shared by the family.

But if you focus solely on the long-range goal of a college scholarship, then these magi-cal moments will go by rela-tively unnoticed – as though they are merely expected –

rather than to be celebrated.There’s nothing wrong with

when your son or daughter have a big game than to let them know that they are to be proud of all of the hard work and effort they put into mas-tering their skills…that these kinds of accomplishments are to be refl ected upon, and cherished by them.

As parents and as adults, we know that there’s only a limited number of years that a youngster can learn, grow, and develop in sports, and when they have that big game — they score a winning goal…or they tackle the op-posing ball carrier on a cru-cial goal-line stand…or they make the perfect pass….it’s important for them to keep that memory burnished in their mind’s eye for a good long time.

And as their parent, you need — actually want — to take a moment or two to let them know how wonderful that feeling is.

Sports are about feeling good about oneself…about living in the moment…and about sharing those special moments with teammates, coaches, and of course, one’s family.

That’s what we should be striving for as successful sports parents.

SPORT

By Dr. Raymond J. Huntington

If your household is like most, there are many day-to-day duties that must be completed. While tasks like laundry and doing dishes may seem tedious for chil-dren, research conducted by the University of Minnesota’s College of Education and Hu-man Development shows that “involving children in house-hold tasks at an early age can have a positive impact later in life.”

Without a doubt, chores foster a good attitude about working hard and being re-sponsible and have many other important benefi ts.

Here are several sugges-tions to help your child build valuable skills while contrib-uting around the house:

• Picking up clutter –

Make time each day for your child to pick up his or her bed-room or around the house. Try setting a timer and challenging your child to see how much he or she can accomplish in fi ve or 10 minutes. Learning to understand how long different tasks take will help your child become better at budgeting his or her time - for homework as well as timed tests and as-signments at school.

• Cooking – Helping in the kitchen is an excellent way to put math concepts into ac-tion, including fractions (using measuring cups and spoons, for example), addition (when counting ingredients, measur-ing and more), multiplication (when doubling a recipe), and telling time and temperature. Older children can learn about chemistry from the changes that foods undergo during the

cooking process.• Preparing menus and gro-

cery lists - Planning your fami-ly’s weekly menu and making an accompanying grocery list requires many different skills. Children must think ahead about what they want to eat, other commitments each eve-ning (such as soccer practice or club meetings), and what ingredients they will need to cook the meal. Planning and managing a project - dinner in this case - are skills they will use again and again.

• Organizing – As any busy parent knows, there is much to keep track of in a household. Ask your older child to help organize the pantry, a closet or another area of the home, developing a reliable organiza-tional system. You could also put your child in charge of col-lecting and sorting the mail every day, maintaining the family calendar or fi ling pa-pers, bills and other important documents in the family fi ling cabinet. Organization chores emphasize the importance of having a designated place for everything. Students who are organized are more likely to avoid misplacing their home-work and being tardy and lat-er, will better understand how to manage multi-step assign-ments and projects.

• Cleaning – Cleaning the kitchen or bathroom can be a science experiment waiting to happen. Use all-natural clean-ing products, such as vinegar, baking soda and lemon juice and do some research with

your child on how they work and how they differ from chemical cleaning products. Find recipes for homemade cleaners online.

• Feeding pets – Car-ing for and feeding the fam-ily pet teaches your child about commitment, being relied upon and keeping to a schedule. It also reinforces the lesson that your child’s actions have consequences. Have your child develop a chart to keep track of feed-ings, or take things further and bring him or her along to veterinary appointments so he or she can learn about your animal’s health.

Age-appropriate chores teach responsibility, work ethic, organization and time management - and they even help children build self-esteem as they gain the satisfaction of seeing tasks through to completion. Chores can also reinforce school skills such as math, reading, critical thinking and more. With all of these ben-efi ts, assigning chores takes on new meaning. Not only will you gain extra hands around the house, your child will be learning and growing as a person and student.
