Notes on Chore Chart
My Quivers Full has a write up on her family’s Chore Chart method which I want to make a few notes on for future reference/ideas.
- In prominent place (on fridge) and easy to use (move from one side of the line to the other when complete)
- Chores portrayed using photos of area/object at home and written title
- Examples of chores: Make Bed, Brush Teeth, Clear table, Dishes to Kitchen, Dirty Clothes in Laundry, Pick Up Toys before Bed. (age appropriate)
- Add chore each year child gets older
- Optional Chores available for additional money earning (quality control in place) – otherwise set allowance
- Balance between getting paid for helping around the house and working together as a family
- Banked allowance into savings (by choice) is matched by parents
