Responsibility is one of the most important lessons we can teach our children. Its just SO hard! It takes consistency and sometimes arguing. It can be really exhausting for us parents.
I have found that keeping things fresh makes it more fun for everyone.
This responsibility chart is perfect for our kids.
It is bright and colorful, which makes me more excited to use it.
The board is set up for up to three children. I may put myself on there too, just to show them that I have responsibilities too and I hold myself accountable just like them.
There are a TON of magnets with typical chores already on them. Things like take care of pets, put away laundry. There are also several blank magnets to create your own chore.
The kids get to choose the reward for each week. The provided options are gifts, food, ice cream, movies and playground. I love that the reward is chosen by them and its simple to change it up each week.
My boys are excited to place the magnets on the chart each day as they complete their chores. They are quick to point out if the other hasn't done something, of course.
This chart is a fun and interactive way to help keep routines in check while fostering independence.
