Routines for Kids

Taking inspiration from Pam's blog and how she's such a mean mom, I mixed in a little Flylady and decided it was time to make up routines for our kids to follow. They were really excited about it. I let them pick out their colours and stuff. This is sort of what they look like - in real life there are also pink boxes around all of Emma's routine, etc. I used Blogger for Word to put my file on here so that's why it's a bit messed up. Sophia & Olivia's routines are in pictures because they can't read yet. I can't figure out how to get the pictures to work too, so I guess I'll have to take a picture of their and post it later. Here's Emma's Routine....

Great routines! Everytime I talk to Joelle about starting up a chore chart, she gets really excited about it. I just have to get around to making it now...

When my mom made a chore chart for my brother, sister and myself I got all excited at first... until I realized I actually had to stick to those chores lol! Luckily I grew out of that phase and enjoy cleaning now :P

Nice! But if you are trying to take my "mean mom" title from me you'll have to work a little harder, lol! I've got 4 years of meanness practice on ya! lol!
