Advice for a new daddy on tasks he can give his little.

[Whiskeydj]

My little and I are new to ddlg and I am trying to reach out on here to get feed back and advice on what daily tasks I can give my little when I am not around. I have already been giving her tasks such as writing journal topics laying out underwear to wear having her do household chores. But I would like some ideas on what other tasks I could give her. Any and all input will be greatly appreciated be it from a fellow daddy or a little.

Hiii! those are all really good productive things you have named. Maybe give her unproductive tasks to do as well...like color a picture for you, take a bath, make some sort of craft, take a nap at a specific time....stuff like that so she knows that you care about her relaxation and creativity. I dunno I hope that helps a tad!

That does help thank you for the reply! What I'm looking for is ideas like that but also some ideas that when she completes them she can feel accomplished that she got it done!

What does she have as life goals? Is she strictly stay at home? Does she go to college? Does she want to? Does she have a hobby she would like to grow, get more tools for, turn into something more then just for herself? Are there habits she wants/needs to build that could be turned into something funny and not just a grind?

 

A more general question to ask is "In what areas of life does she want and need to grow?" Have you two discussed this topic? to what detail?

 

I think what you are doing is great and asking is even better.

She has goals that her and I have been working on together to help her achieve them. They are simple ones like get healthier, stop swearing, help her find a way to calm and relax when she gets angry and crabby. We are working on the goals with rules but what Her and I have talked and we feel what we need is more structure and have accountably for when she does/doesn't complete a task cause she likes when I assign her tasks. So I want to have some tasks for her that I know I will be able to keep her accountable on.

That makes good sense and I am specific but I think I need to be more specific and I like the idea of weekly tasks written down I was thinking of having my little and I make a task chart/book together and have her fill it out and send me a picture of it filled out so I know if she is completing the task even when I'm not with her and that way I can than look back and keep tack and tally up if she was a good little girl for the week

Hi I am a new middle and need lots of help from a Daddy with my goals and tasks.

 

On this forum I read about a free real world software called www.habitica.com  

that is easy to use, accessible to both the Daddy and the little, to help track your

goals and tasks as well as rewards. Take a look. I am going to suggest it to my 

Daddy when I get one.

With a little, I think the biggest thing is discussing goals. I think you hot it right on with understanding your little and what she needs. Structure is important to a little!

-Make sure her room/the house is tidy

-(if she has stuffies) align them nicely on the bed for you to see.

-Draw you/colour you a picture.

-Write you a note

-Dress up in something cute for when you get home

-Bake something for you

-Make sure all her sippy cups/bottles are labelled or clean. 

-Exercise in a fun way! (Dancing to her favourite music) 

 

Idk I can't think of anymore right now but there's a few [:

OR EVEN I JUST HAD A GREAT IDEA! YOU COULD MAKE HER A SCHEDULE.

7:30 Wake up, brush teeth.

7:45 Eat breakfast that you (daddy) has prepared.

8:00 Watch favourite cartoons for a while.

9:00 Make sure bedroom is tidy and bed is made.

9:30 Play with stuffies/colour/make you things.

And so on and so forth ;o
