So, recently while putting together some collages to send to Ryan in Guatemala, I came up with an idea to help Damon remember what comes next in our daily routine. I ran around the house taking pictures of all the things Damon is responsible for and the rewards for each of these things.
Then, I put 9 pictures on a 4x6 photograph. I had them printed and then cut each one out.
I stuck each picture to a laminated chore chart using Handi-Tak. Now I can move them around or add to the chart when I need to. On laundry day I just add a picture of folded clothes which doesn't need to be there everyday.
So far this is working pretty well, but I am always looking for new ideas. So, do you have any ides on getting kids to get the work done quickly so there is time to play? Please share!

Way fun to remember what to do next for a little guy- I LOVE IT!
I love it. Pictures are great! As far as other ideas, so far I just need to sing, "Clean up, clean up. Everybody everywhere. Clean up, Clean up. Everybody do your share," and that works for Mylee. :) She calls it "Sheeem UP!"
