You really should encourage your children to volunteer as it can give them so many benefits. Children can start volunteering at an early age. You might wish to introduce them to volunteering by choosing a family activity. It offers these perks:

  • Helping them develop a pattern of being do-gooders.
  • Giving them an opportunity to spend quality time together as a family.
  • Introducing them to new interests and possible careers.
  • Beefing up their college resumes.

Especially in this time of COVID-19 Pandemic, many organization are lacking volunteers. In this new virtual world, many of these opportunities are online. For example, older children can serve as tutors for younger children. They can also play game with both seniors and younger children online to break the monotony of social distancing. Your family can google volunteering opportunities in your community.
