I love this idea. My 3 yo is very strong willed and I have a hard time getting him to help with toys. other things like feeding the dogs and laundry, no problem. I love the idea of the magnets but, in an effort not to spend money on anything for this, I think i\\\’ll use my velcro squares! :) Since i\\\’m not a SAHM, spends most of his time at pre-school so this will greatly help with the weekend routine! :)

Thank you!!!

Wow! I love this. This will great to use with all of the boys, but especially our oldest with autism who learns and loves pictures. Can’t wait to get this started!

I also wanted to thank you for linking up to my post the other day! I appreciate it so much!

: ) I posted our variation on this method about 2 weeks ago on my own blog! It is working FABULOUS! We use the magnets too, because the table method with our 1 year old just wouldn\’t work.

We implemented the chore card system after you first posted it. I just put the cards on the kitchen island of the chores my 4 year old had that day. When he was done with each chore, we put the card in the basket. The only problem was that most of his chores were upstairs and away from the kitchen. We forgot about the cards and I didn’t have enough cards for my 8, too. So, we went with check off charts on their bedroom doors that they can check off each night. For my 4 year old, seeing that something didn’t get checked off one day was enough motivation to get it done the next.
