These are really great tips. I think I will start using the timer for my daughter, something that should take her about 30 minutes always ends up taking her about 2 hours.. Great idea.

That’s a great suggestion about the timer! We definitely suffer from the one chore takes twice as long as it should syndrome! Thanks for the tip!

Chore charts work well, we also use goal charts for bigger items. We’ve used them since the kids were tiny to teach them to save money for unnecessary items like school book orders, but they could also be used for something fun…. check off boxes until you get to the end which might mean a game with mom or a trip to get ice cream.

this is a great idea for my kdis. Right now, we have 4 ages 6-14, and they can help each other doing chores. I guess I had been very easy on them. If they want rewards, they need to earn it 🙂

This is really wonderful idea, instead of those no fun chores why not do something that will work with the kids and make them happy after doing the task too.

That’s a work in progress at our household too. Sometimes I get tired of telling them but stickers which later converts into cash works for us here as rewards for chores being done.

I love the junk jail! It’s always hard to get kids to help but it’s worth the effort.
