Chore/Reward Charts

I am a slacker mom and not much for chore charts. I just say "Help now!" But something has got to change around this joint with baby 4 approaching. We are trying to teach our kids more respoinsibility while rewarding them with privileges instead of Target $1 toys!

So, here it is.....

Usually, I would forget to print the list each week, forget to get the prize, forget there was even a chart and then be really annoyed when I felt overwhelmed!

I made each kid a chart off the computer. Easy peasy. Took 2 minutes. I know what I want them to do!!

Then, I covered them in contact paper and put them on the fridge. We have markers they will "x" out each job. Then we can erase and start over every week. If something changes, we can just change the chart on the computer and done.

We even made one for our 2 1/2 year old. More of a behavioral chart than anything. The girl is crazy!

Here are what ours look like:
