Website spotlight of the week
I've found that with motivating my 4 kids to do their daily chores in the summer can seem pointless. One kid can finish jobs faster than most adults to see if he can "earn" extra computer time, while another fakes amnesia about the idea that chores were even assigned. I ran across a great website called my job chart. It's easy to set up, you can add as many kiddos as you want, add your own chores or choose from theirs and then give rewards at the end of the week (or whenever). Rewards are not necessarily cash -- they include things like playing a board game, spending time with a parent, a favorite activity, etc. Best of all, it's free. I have it set up for back to school, so I'll keep you posted, but it may help your family too!
