Time For Chores!

If you have children then you know just how hard it is to get them to help with chores. I made this chore chart for my 7 year old. Instead of money he earns power, in minutes, which he can then put towards a TV show, time on his iPad or DSi, or time on the laptop. He can save his minutes up for a special movie night if he wants to. As he grows I can simply add more chores that are age appropriate. All up it cost around $10 to make and took around 2 hours. The magnetic board is a recycled cake tray, the magnets are made from bottletops and magnetic tape.
