Clipboard Chore Chart

Summer is here and the days are long and hot. Time to find more things to keep my kids productive indoors! I found this great idea at A Girl and a Glue Gun for a magnetic Chore Chart.


I made mine without putting the scrapbook paper over the magnetic paint because I just couldn't get the magnets to hold through the paper. So instead I just let my kids choose their favorite color of paint, and here's what I got!

On the back of the clip board is a pocket that holds all the other chores they can complete. I switch them out daily so there is always something for them to do!

When they complete each chore they are given a ticket/token to be put into their jar. Once they reach 10 tickets/tokens they can trade them in for a $1 {and a trip to the dollar store}, or if they hold out and reach 20 tickets/tokens that's a Happy Meal! 

It's amazing how clean things are around here, and how often my kids are asking for another chore! I love it!!
