Another survey for documentary research?

Which of these tasks would you consider a 5-year old capable of?





Tidying Lounge/Sitting Room?





Poorly/Reasonably/Well





Feeding rabbit with no help





Poorly/Reasonably/Well





Phoning a shop to ask if they have something. (Being provided the telephone number)





Poorly/Reasonably/Well





Emptying and loading washing machine





Poorly/Reasonably/Well

Another survey for documentary research?
Tidying - Well


Feeding Pet - Reasonable


Phoning a shop - Poor


Emptying loading a washing machine - Poor
Reply:try the wringers may tag.
Reply:Picking up toys and dtraightening up? Reasonably well.





Feeding the rabbit? Reasonably well - motor control in pouring the feed might be an issue, but if scooping it out, that should be just fine.





Phoning a shop? Maybe not quite ready for that. Small children lack the sophistication for phone skills yet.





Emptying/loading a washing machine - dish washer or clothes washer? The weight of wet clothing might be an issue, especially if the machine is top loading. For both machines, assisting in the loading and unloading process would be quite easily handled, as long as they aren't trying it all on their own. reach and upper body strength are the issues here.

A lot of people underestimate children. 5 year old's have already mastered conservation and object permanence so they can clean rooms and do simple chores such as these. However, the rabbits might be distracting, so it depends on the child and if the rabbit is a stranger or a pet.
