My girls are out of school in a couple of weeks and then the long summer looms ahead.  In order to keep my home running smoothly while they are home all day I am going to rely on my girls to handle certain chores around the house.  I created this chore chart for my daughter to keep track of progress.

 

I started with a dollar store cookie sheet and Therm O Web Peel N’ Stick.  I covered the back of the cookie sheet with Peel N’ Stick adhesive and then attached the patterned paper pieces.

   
I attached ribbon borders with Therm O Web Sticky Lines.  Then the flower and buttons were adhered with Therm O Web Large Zots™.

 

The chore charms were made with laminated, printed cardstock circles attached to magnets with Large Zots™.  The magnets will make it easy to move a chore from “To Do” to “Done”, even for little hands.

This project was surprisingly quick and easy.   Now here’s hoping she actually completes her chores as expected!

  

Happy Summer Crafting!

    I’m going to make this for my brother for his birthday to use with his almost-5-year old daughter. It will be a big help to them both! Great idea. Thanks.
