Chore Cards-Free Download

With a 3rd baby on the way and my kids growing up I have been trying to get them to help around the house more often. At 4 and 3 years old I have discovered there are basic chores around the house that they can help with. At first I gave them money, pennies for their piggy banks. But then I came across these fantastic chore cards on Etsy. I figured I could make some of my own because I am pretty good at Photoshop. I like the cards because of the punches. They can punch the cards themselves after they do a chore and take pride in filling up their card. When they have reached 10 punches they get to pick a prize from the treasure chest (yes we have a treasure chest like at the dentist filled with fake tattoos, stickers, and little dollar store finds).

Some of the chores the kids like to do are:
-scrubbing the toilet (with supervision)
-cleaning the windows or mirrors (with supervision)
-putting their clothes away in the drawers after I have washed and folded them
-picking up their toys
-unloading the dish washer
-helping set the table
-putting their books away
-working in their workbooks for 30 min (alphabet, numbers, etc)
-feeding the fish

We don’t do all these chores every day but as I am working in the house they like to help out and I hope these chore cards will encourage them to help more often.
