Summertime is here! Are you excited about having the kids home for a couple of months or are you dreading the down time?
With kids getting out of school and being around more, having a structured household is a challenge for most families.
Well, here’s a cool, free, tool to help you get your house in order and teach your kids some pretty important stuff all at the same time. MyJobChart.com is a Free online chore chart that teaches kids work ethic and how to be smart with money. This tool works so well that they have a new member join every 2 minutes! Crazy.
If your kids want to go to the water park or the movies this summer how about adding that as a reward on their job chart and then have them work for it? You want to let them go anyway, but this is a good way to get them to be motivated about contributing around the house at the same time.
This is a great way to get the “bored” kid up off of the couch and engaged in some meaningful work and reward.
You can even kick off the job chart concept with your kids by downloading a free e-book on your tablet and reading about 2 kids- one gets stuck in the couch and one doesn't! Hint: tell your child you don’t want them stuck in your couch this summer!
Best of luck making summertime a fun and meaningful time for your family.
