Chore Charts Made Cheap and Easy!!!!!

I searched and searched for a chore system that would work for my little ones and finaly decided to make my own using all of my favorite ideas and walmart!

So here is the final product!  Each child is color coded at our house.  Dawson is green and his chart is divided into three sections:

Chores, Done, and Allowance.

Each chore is on the chore side in the order in which they are to be completed.  I have a membership to the Managers of their Chores site and used some of their images and some I found at classroom clip art.  I printed out the chart and laminated it with self-laminating sheets at walmart.  I attached the peel and stick hooks and punched holes in the laminated chore cards.

As the children do a chore they move it to the done side to see what they are to do next.  At the end of each day they earn a quarter to put on their hook and at the end of the week they cash them in to put in their banks.

This is working well for us and I would be happy to answer any questions or give you the list of all the things I did wrong before comming up with this!:)

Happy homemaking and heart training!

I love this idea. We have several different but also similar charts we have also made.It seems like whenever you go out for a chart they just don't always fit what your family needs,especially multiple children households.Great job on being creative..

That chore chart is fantastic. So very creative. I may follow suit and ditch the paper and check mark version I have.
