    Introduction to Chores

    In many countries, children are required to do chores around the house. Chores
    can be defined as little jobs you do around the house to help keep everything
    clean and orderly. In the United States, many parents ask their children to do
    chores in order to earn an allowance.

    An allowance is an amount of money paid on a weekly, or monthly basis.


    Allowances allow children to have some pocket money to spend as they see fit. This
    can help them learn to manage their own money, as well as help them become
    more independent as they grow up. Here are some of the most common chores that
    children are asked to do.
