Crafty Chore ChartsCreative solutions for family chore challenges!

I have a confession to make: Right around back-to-school time, I turn into an insatiable monster called The Organizeaholic.

My children run and scream for cover, but with sticker charts and calendars in hand, I hunker down and brainstorm ideas for scheduling the hectic school season ahead. Not all of my creative solutions work, but a few have been successful because they were fun and involved the kids input.

In this week’s AmazingMoms blog, I’m sharing my two personal favorites: the “reverse chore bank” and a “kid–friendly to–do list.”

You’ll be amazed how a few art supplies and a roll of coins can inspire your kids to do their dishes, put away their back packs, and brush their teeth. Trust me; it’s much better than nagging!

The Amazing Moms blog will show you how >>
