New Chore System

I have been thinking for a while how I wanted to implement chores in our new home. New house= great time for change. I also wanted something that was basic and easily flexible. Since I'm really hoping to work this fall it needs to be something that will allow for the kids to be independent in getting their things done and on the chance I don't work...they can still be independent :)

Anyway, here is what I came up with...I hope it will work out.

The first 3 pictures are in a little entryway nook that we have. The posters are above each child's marker board. The marker board will be where I will write out a couple of chores each day that I need completed--their Chore Board.



 Where the morning/evening routine posters say morning/evening chore, I have a chart on my refrigerator like this. I just move the clip each day and they do that job.
And this one is a copy from my friend Angela--I loved her idea and had to steal it--Thanks! I'm hoping it will at least lessen the perpetual questions around here :)

I hope I didn't bore you all too much with this post...I'm just excited about this as it looks like it will really work for our family.

And now I'm off to make some homemade pina colada ice cream.
Have a great day!!
