Chore Chart Revamp
I think Kaleb's at the age now where he can do some basic chores. Little dude loves to clean up and help us anyway, so we might as well make it official. Here's the problem. I don't like any of the chore charts I've seen. I think Mommy and Daddy should also be included on the chore chart. Maybe not with a bunch of chores on it since we do most of them anyway, but I think it will help Kaleb to see that everyone around the house chips in to make things run smoothly. Also, I think that instead of a word chore chart it should include pictures and words. I think I'd take a picture of each person in the family and put the name beneath it. That way it'll help the kids learn what their names look like. Same with the chores. Put a picture of the actual object (dishwasher, trucks, dirty clothes) and put the name under it. I might need to get with Amelia or Haley to help me with this project. One thing I need to decide is whether or not to use a magnetic board or eraser board for this, how many chores should be allotted, should the chores change daily or stay the same, and what about allowance? I'm going to consider this a summer project. Hopefully I'll be able to take pictures of my progress.
