The Responsibility Chart



Since school is finished and the summer has begun {woop woop} I decided to focus in on manners, helping, and responsibility in general. It's a great time to brush up on these areas and reward good work.
Sooooo....I found an adorable "chores" chart that a missionary posted on her blog. It inspired me to make one of my own. Gracie helped me make it and is excited to put the magnets on the 'responsibilities' as she accomplishes them.

The magnets are taken off the chart each day and the girls may add one each time I notice them doing a 'responsibility'. At the end of the day, if each category has been accomplished, they get a special reward. And at the end of the week, if each day has been filled....they get {drum roll please} a Dairy Queen ice cream! Doesn't get any better than that. All though, I guess they SHOULD get a cupcake to go with the theme. We shall see how it goes.

Nevertheless, it was a fun DIY project to do with Grace and hopefully it will help us sharpen the girls in these areas.
