Mommy Monday - Sticker Chart



Last Saturday, we put up a sticker chart for Kahlen with some chores for her. Some were new, some were things she was struggling with. I took her to Target the day we put it up and let her pick out a pony for when the chart was full.




All week, she worked diligently on her chart, getting the thing full in exactly 7 days! She did awesome, and I'm excited to have her not only continue the chores she started, but also to add a few more difficult things relating to her heart and some issues we've been having lately. Things like staying in bed and not getting up to go pee 20 times in an hour, obeying Mommy quickly and the first time, and I'm sure a few more. The first one worked so well, here's hoping for continued success!

Also, here's a hilarious picture of Kahlen. I borrowed Wii Fit Plus from my mom to see if I like it enough to buy it. Kahlen really wanted to play too, so here she is, doing yoga :)


And, of course, I can't help throwing in a picture of the boy. He LOVES graham crackers! So much so that he doesn't get any for the next couple days because I want him to eat his veggies too.

 
 
I would love to know what sort of chores and responsibilities your little ones have. I'm still trying to figure out what is reasonable to ask of my 3-year-old and what she's just not capable of yet.

Love the sticker chart! We did something similar for brushing teeth once. It eventually wore off. Maybe I should try the stickers again with the new chores.
great blog!
