I'm hoping for some ideas (or links to websites) for job charts. Â Here is my situation - I'm due with child #6 any day now. Â I have an almost 3 yr old, two 4 yr olds, and two 5 year olds. Â I realize the kids are all very young and shouldn't be expected to do "chores." Â I'm really hoping to not get a heated debate on what is age appropriate as far as responsibilities. Â I know what my kids are capable of and I'm just looking for a way to manage that.
Â
I'm looking for them to do simple things like feed the cat, help load the dishwasher, put their clothes in the hamper and put their toys away etc. Â With that many kids, I haven't found a job chart idea that really WORKS yet. Â The sticker thing was getting a bit much but they did like being able to show what they did that day.
Â
2 of the kids are only here Thursdays to Sundays every week so I need to be able to split things up so they are still involved and have responsibility. Â I don't want them to feel like they can come here, make a mess and leave without having to contribute.
Â
Anyway...any thoughts?
