Dry Erase Chore Chart DIY
As back to school quickly approaches, I am trying to get our home organized and to get the kids eager to help out! We have done chore charts in the past and they were very successful. (They just typically fall by the wayside when our days are irregular in the summertime.) So our new chore chart looks like this:
Pretty simple.
I Just took an 8X10 frame I had ready in the gift closet, placed 4 pieces of different colored handmade paper inside.
Added each of the kid's names to their section of paper and a list of chores at the top.
Placed it all back in the frame and added the title in stickers.
Each time the kids complete a chore, they get a mark in their section: Dry erase marker so they can be erased and reset each week.
Our rewards for a job well done change frequently.
Right now, they will each earn a dime for each chore they complete.
(We are headed to Disney in a few weeks and want them to have some of their own spending money)
Other rewards might include:
1. The child with the most points will get to choose a family activity
2. Each point earns a dollar for our rewards closet store
3. Most points gets to choose dessert for one night
4. Child with the most points will get to decide on dinner for one night, and help prepare it.
Now it sits front and center on the kitchen counter to remind us all to help out and keep track of those hard earned points!
