Homemade Chore Charts

After recently rationing media time to four 15 minute tickets a day, I was reminded how well kids respond when they understand what expectations we have of them.
I made these homemade chore charts today. I just used materials that I had: cardboard, stickers, colored masking tape and clothespins. I told them they can earn four extra 15 media tickets a day after they finish their chores. They were workhorses! I tried to make the chart simple and clear and they seemed to appreciate how easy it was to use and what was expected of them. Score 1 for the mommy team!
