Chore Chart

So I decided I needed some more organization in my life.  I also decided my kids needed more responsibility.  They are getting to an age where they talk more about getting an allowance.  I found something that met all those needs.  I saw it on pinterest and jumped on it.  I went to the store the same day I saw the idea and got what I needed.  I think it will work really well....at least I hope so.  Some of the chores they do daily just because they are expected to....making beds, doing homework, etc.  I have other chores that are worth money.  Each of those chores is marked with a star on the back.  Each time they do one of those chores they receive a ticket(worth $0.25) that goes in their reward pocket. At the end of each week we add up their tickets and they get the money.  Motivation is always great. :)

I love it! It's cute and it's functional. I'm excited to hear how it works out in the next few weeks. I'm glad you live close by and post on your blog so that I can copy your good ideas. Mother of the year award goes to you :)

I wanna get a real life look and copy it. Where would I put it?
That's my problem.
