One of the hardest parts of parenting is teaching kids how to be good and helpful citizens. There is also the importance of teaching them how to accomplish tasks and goals. Finding ways to teach them these life-long skills can be hard when we want them to listen and work hard. How do we do this though? How do we remind them to even do their chores?
Chore charts is a good start. It seems to be an easy way proven to help our children learn about responsibility and accomplishing tasks. Children can easily see what tasks need to get down without having their parents tell them verbally when it is displayed visually. However, the hardest part is finding a chore chart that works well with your family.
Here are some of the best chore charts I have come across.
1. You don’t always have to use paper, nor are you limited to just using daily tasks
2. Spin the wheel to see what tasks your children will randomly get
3. Display the chart where everyone can see it, especially in the kitchen on the fridge
4. Age appropriate chore charts are great so your children can successfully complete tasks that they can do at their development level
5. You can easily change the tasks on this chore chart since it comes blank when you download the printable
6. Breaking up the day can help your child not feel overwhelmed and also help them know where to start when doing their chores
7. Making a fun system that kids can actually see their work being paid off is something your kids will love
8. Chores don’t have to be hard and daunting, they can be simple and fun at the same time just like with this popsicle chore chart idea
9. Use pictures to create a chore chart if your child can’t read yet
10. If your child is wanting some extra money, here is a great idea for them to do some extra chores around the house
