Forget Budget Apps—The Amish Have the Ultimate Money-Saving System
DIY Bonding
Forget hiring help or fancy gadgets; in Amish households, chores are a family affair. By age two or three, little ones are perched on chairs, cheerfully tackling the dishes. As they grow, their responsibilities do, too, from sweeping floors to fixing leaks. It’s less about child labor and more about life lessons wrapped in soapy suds.
This hands-on approach avoids hefty service bills and instills a sense of accomplishment and teamwork from a tender age. For the rest of us, embracing a bit of the Amish elbow grease could not only pad our wallets but also bring our families closer.
