Helping Hands at Home is a project that is focused on collaboration between parents and teachers in the field of children’s chores, which has many benefits for pupils. Once children contribute to work in the house, they learn responsibility, develop empathy, time management and strength moral development. With the help of teachers, parents easily overcome the struggle of giving jobs to kids at home. Through the project’s activities we would like to conduct empirical research on the positive effects of chores on pupils’ success in both social and academic life. The main purpose of the project is to prepare the initial research, which will be held the basis for the main research of the dissertation, which is called Teacher Training and Parent-Teacher-Child Triad. The paper was supported by the project Children's Life and Teacher-Parent Collaboration No. IGA_PdF_2024_021.
