My kids have JUST finished creating their summer chore 'system' - learning as much about brainstorming and teamwork as they did about chores! <br /><br />I let them do all the work - from the concept to the execution - figuring if they design the system, they will have more invested in the success (we'll see how long that lasts!) <br /><br />They went with a simple index card system in which there corkboard with envelopes to represent an 'in box' and an 'out box' for each child...Each chore is on its own index card which I place in the in-box once a week and the kids move them to the out-box when completed. <br /><br />Wish us luck!<br /><br />Thanks for your inspiration and the great resources:-)Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09018280920023313622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5858280271217609516.post-9861317810543580962011-06-10T01:15:10.823-04:002011-06-10T01:15:10.823-04:00Wow Mel that looks amazing!
