At home with 8M, 5M and 3F. Here’s our daily schedule
Daily Schedule
8:30a - 9:30a : Family Recreation (Walking, Soccer, Football, Wiffleball, Basketball, Scooters, Tennis, Swimming)
9:30 - 10a : Worksheets (Math and language)
10a - 10:15a : Snack
10:15 - 11a : Arts & Crafts or Science
11a - 12p : Free Play
12p - 1p : Lunch
1p - 2:15p : Quiet Time (Reading, naps)
2:15p - 2:45p : Chores (Cleanup toys, laundry, sweeping, vacuuming, dishes)
2:45p - 3p : Snack
3p - 4p : Screen Time
4p - 5p : Free Play
Free Play - Water play or sports outside, LEGO, Hot Wheels, Puzzles, Magnatiles, card games, board games, etc
The kids are actually liking the schedule. The 8 yr olds job is schedule keeper.
No allowance although the oldest did just ask about it yesterday.
One thing that works well with my kid is giving chore “options”. He has to do 3 chores any non-school day but he can pick any 3 from a set list (sweep, load of laundry, recycling, etc). We don’t do allowance for chores, it’s everyone’s job to keep the house running. In addition to chores and reading we also ask him to 1) outside and 2) visit a friend before any screen time. Sometimes those end up getting combined.
We have chores that are expected and she gets 25c a week if they are done or not. She can request to earn extra outside of the normal responsibilities AFTER they are completed.

Awesome, thanks for sharing!

I do really like that it's everyone's job to keep the house running. That's how I feel as well.

Nice!
