Chore Charts - For Mum & Kids

[~ Zarava Flutterby ~]

Her 'Helping Chart' is done and she already has a star on it and is actually attempting to help me in her room, ohhh it might be a good thing after all.
Her first was helping with the dishes this morning, the other things are:
Helping make her bed, helping clean her room, feeding the pets, helping pick up toys, helping water the plants & helping with the washing

I thought I was the only one who had a weekly housework chart on the fridge! I have it divided into morning, middle of the day (DS' nap time) and arvo and include all the housework plus grocery shopping, regular outings and appointments (Library, Music for DS, chiro etc), cooking PLUS (most importantly!) what I like to call 'personal time'. In other words, time to be on BB, read and have a cuppa. Without my chart I get sidetracked and never get the 'me' time.Or I 'forget' to do the stuff that DS can't be around for when he's asleep (cleaning the toilet is just too hard when your little man loves brushes like mine does!) or I avoid the chores I don't like (cleaning the bathroom, lol!). I also have my meal planner at the bottom. I want to get it laminated so I can mark stuff off as I go and reuse it for my meal planner.
I love that your DD's want to be like their mummy! DS, 16 months, loves to help too - he gets a cloth if I'm cleaning or the dustpan brush or a duster!

Sounds like a fabulous idea!! I might need to steal that idea for me - I'm terrible at the moment.
