Chore Charts for Your Family
I was just at one of my sister-in-law’s house the other day and she set up a chore chart. I find those to be remarkable useful. Heck, I set up one for myself and I’m a grown up :\.
Really these are amazing tools we’ve been using the original idea of them “to do list” but someone finally stepped up and mass produced them for families. I think these are awesome. Currently for my to-do list for myself I use my momAgenda, but what about for the entire family? I don’t want someone man-handling my personal organizer. Well I wanted something that is great and I can just print out in a snap for the next week or even month.
Granted, I am computer savvy but I’m not a designer. I have people who design for me but I don’t always want to pay them to do every little thing so I decided I wanted some for free. As everyone here knows my motto is: “Cheap, Free, and Easy” well what about combining all three for one single site? I only wish they had thought of it sooner!
The website to visit is ChoreCharts. Now when you go in you can download from several different designs and they are currently working on the new part of their site which will allow you to design your own. I can’t wait. I’m so going back and making one! This site also shows you other ways to pay your kids allowance. Through various programs.
Essentially this is an awesome tool, I mean you can customize the chore chart for your family when they are done tweaking that section of the site I am excited to go back. This is an absolutely fabulous find! Some people pay for family planners $16.95 for a set of 50 sheets. How about paying absolutely nothing and you can have as many sheets as you do printer paper. Which would you prefer?

aww those are cute.
I love those charts! I set one up for my daughter, many years ago, but it just didn’t work in our household. I think she found it somewhat comical. Her achievement skyrocketed with the “gold star” technique – though I caught her once putting gold stars on days we hadn’t even lived yet. I guess these things work great for some, I just didn’t keep up with it.
P.S. My daughter is Head Mommy of this website!
Wow I remember when we had to build our chore charts by hand and hang them in the fridge…
