Creating a Home Journal: Step 5, Part 3 - Cleaning - Children's Section

I use this section to list the children's chores. Here
is a great article to help you decide what chores you children can do grouped according to age.

Here is an example of what the children's chore chart looks like:

Homework

Make a list of the chores you want your children to do. Have a row for daily chores and a row for weekly chores.

Put a copy in the last part of your cleaning section and post a copy in place where the children can consult what is expected of them for each day.
