Chore Chart Challenge PDF

Dear parents, for the week your Ember is going old school. Self sufficiency and helping the community are important aspects of saving the world, to practice these skills, your Ember will be doing a Chore Chart Challenge! The point of this challenge is to show them that they are quiet capable of looking after themselves, while giving them managable activities that they can accomplish. Give them chores they do not need your assistance with, so they can learn the extent of their own capabilities. Supervise them during the chore, and provide instructions when necessary so the job is done safely and according to your family standards - but do not jump in to make it perfect. It is about quantity and consistency, not perfection. 

Chore Chart Challenge Instructions

There are 5 chores to be done daily. Every day, when your child finishes the chore, you initial the box.  We have left the fifth chore blank so you can sit down with your child and choose an appropriate chore that can be completed daily. Some examples are pet care, laundry, and vacuuming.  

One chore always causes trouble: tidy your room. This does not mean they need to spend 3 hours sorting out the mess! Instead, fifteen minutes should be devoted to putting away clothes and toys and, if there is time, perhaps even straightening out a shelf or drawer. The chores should take no more than a combined time of 30 minutes.
