I was talking with my mom about my kiddos doing work and she mentioned this article that talks about age-appropriate chores for kids. I thought it was helpful since I wonder if I expect too much or not enough. This summer I've got to buckle down and focus on a chore chart for the kids and MYSELF. Put 'em to work so they won't get into mischief. And then we'll have a nice tidy house to play in and enjoy.

GREAT plan! We were on the same wavelength today about kids and jobs. I'm eagerly awaiting the second installment of that article--"for teens!"
Hey Heath, I would LOVE this article but I couldn't get it to come up. Would you mind emailing the link to me? THANK YOU! :)
This is a great article. I need to make my girls a chart, and stick with it. I had one for Heidi a while ago, but stopped having her do the chores because it is easier and faster for me to just do it all. But I want her to learn to clean and help out. Thanks for sharing this.
