My mom started chores with us pretty early. We earned a tiny allowance that grew as our responsibilities grew. And it taught us important skills like how to clean a bathroom, do laundry and cook a meal.
Gabrielle is taking an interest in the chores I do around the house. So while it’s still fun, I thought I would take advantage of the enthusiasm.
She has been fighting me on getting dressed in the morning and I needed another tool to utilize as motivation. Also, she is developing some behaviours (such as moving at the speed of an intoxicated turtle) that I would like to nip in the bud. A few days in and she’s doing really well.
Please excuse that my “Brush Teeth” picture looks like I’m encouraging my child to smoke a pipe…
