Emma has wanted a "chore chart" for some time now. I have also wanted to make a chore chart and implement weekly allowance but time just slips away on all those little things you want to do. We finally got around to making one. I let her help me decide which chores we would add to the chart. She was already doing a lot of them so this will be a fun way for her to keep track of them, earn an allowance, and do new chores! I made it on my computer and printed it on card stock. I stuck it in a plastic sleeve and attached a dry erase marker to mark off each chore when it is done. She loves to mark them off and is very excited about her chores. There are some chores on there that she will do just once a week and some open slots if we have chores we want to add certain weeks. She already knows what she is saving her allowance for, a FurReal GoGo My Walkin' Pup. I will make one for Eli that includes putting shoes away, putting toys away, dirty clothes in bin, etc. He want a sheet to mark off too! It is amazing how much kids want to help and be independent.
