 Home management is a part of family life. It is all
about managing the family resources so that the needs
and wants of each member are met and satisfied.
Parents are not the only ones with the responsibility
for managing the home. Everyone must be aware of
their duties and responsibility to achieve the goal.

 
 Apart from money, family resources also
include things nonworking members of the
family may possess. These are energy, time, and
skills. Like money, these resources are finite.
This should be instilled in the minds of the
members of the family.

 
What is time and energy management?
Time and energy management involves teaching
pupils how to effectively manage their time and
energy to complete household tasks efficiently and
effectively.
Time and Energy Management
This involves teaching pupils how to plan and
organize their time effectively so that they can
complete household tasks within a given timeframe.
This can include creating schedules and to-do lists,
prioritizing tasks, and setting realistic goals.
There are some tasks that require only a little time and
energy to accomplish. Take these things into
consideration when scheduling activities.
Household activities should be managed properly to
lessen unnecessary labor and help speed up work and
reduce stress.
Regular Income
Regular income is received on an ongoing basis
and the timing and amounts involved tend to be
predictable.
Below are some helpful reminders or tips to simplify work
at home.
 Identify and analyze each activity. Not everything has to
be done every day.
 Plot the activities that can be done daily, weekly, or
monthly. The following is an example of how to plan
activities so as not to overwork the household and allow for
other activities to be included during the day.
 Skills and interests of family members. Allow members of
the family to express their preferred tasks according to their
interests and skills. The rotation of tasks can be
implemented on a weekly or bi-monthly basis.
 Consider the health, age, and abilities of each member.
 Assign tasks based on the availability of the members.
