When I got a few minutes to myself at home I typed up some chore ideas with prices. Print cut and glue while kids were busy watching Narnia(for the 100th time). I let them dry overnight, hoping the kids would leave them alone!
I put each chore's worth on color coded colors. $1.00=Green $0.50=Yellow $0.25=Red
I left a few blank so I can make up mom's choice chores later on.
The next day I stuck them onto the fridge, Explained the concept to the kids, and BAM they were off and running. June Bug(6) washed the dishes for the first time for $1.00 and Jetty Boy wiped down all 3 tables for $0.50.
They each have a savings jar made out of used coffee creamer cans. Each chore done is paid in coins not paper(they end to lose of rip dollar bills.
