Fabulous Idea

So we have trouble keeping a scedule for chores to be done. It's been hard cause we have the three big kids which rotate in and out of the house and chore responsibilties, and two little ones who are just learning to do chores. I saw this in a magazine. We took full size pictures of all the people in our family and put them on magnetic paper. Our chore "chart" is on a magnet board-which we bought at IKEA. The chore list is set up however it works best. (We have tried SOOO many ways-calenders with set chores, rotating chore lists by week or day in a game board fashion....) I am trying an inner circle with chores that change every day and then an outer circle with chores that change weekly but always include clean your own room, etc. The little magnet people turned out so cute and there will never be any disagreement about who's chore is whos. (HA!)
