If you want to get really nerdy, you can make a spreadsheet with chores and their difficulty point values. Then every week, say on Sunday evening, have the family compete on the sheet to sign up for their favorite chores until they've signed up for a total of x points.
What a fun and motivational way to divide up the chores! I'm always looking for ways to improve our routines, especially as my kids get older and are capable of taking on more responsibility. Thanks for reading!
I’m so excited to see this post swap! Both Mollie and Claire are wonderful, devoted moms and homeschool moms. I’m blessed to call them my friends! Do yourself a favor and subscribe to both! ♥️♥️
I believe there's so much value in teaching kids to contribute to home life, but I find it difficult in practice. Thank you for the reminder that it's about simplicity and consistency in the little things, over an extended period.

It's the motivation I needed to stick with it :)
Glad you found it helpful! It really is hard to implement without some sort of system, but consistency and follow-through is the key!
