Chore Chart!

I've been looking online for months and months for a chore chart for my 4 year old.  I tried one that you create online and they click the things they do daily but that was too much work{for me :)}and I didn't like the idea of her being on the computer every day.  I'd see some online but think they were too basic, or I'd find one I'd like but it didn't have quite what I needed for our home.  I finally came up with my own idea!


I made this chore chart with:
clip board - wooden $1.99 at Target
scrapbook paper
Mod Podge
Paper Cutter
Scissors
clothes pins
Chores printed on paper
sponge brush

Every morning the clothespins start on the right side.  After she does each chore she moves a clothes pin over to the left side next to the chore completed.  I have a calendar where I put a sticker on every day she completes her chores and then she gets a dollar every week.  She's very excited about this.





Next time I'll print the chores on cardstock rather than printer paper.
