Emma's Chore Chart

All you need to start is a $1.50 regular size clipboard, and a package of normal size clothes pins for $1.25 at any walmart type store, or craft store. You will also need a list a few chores for your child and cute 8 1/2 " X 11" scrapbook paper, some modge podge and a brush!Print out the list of chores onto the cute scrapbook paper is a cute font! I also typed on the top on one side, "Done" and on the other side, "Not". Then she knows that she has to move the clothes pin from the "Not" side to the "Done" side after she does it! Then put modge podge on the clipboard and carefully place the paper on the clipboard to glue down! Smooth out any air pockets and let dry! While drying you can decorate your clothespins the same way you just did the chore chart to the clipboard! After the paper is dried to the clipboard, modge podge the top of the paper to clipboard again and let dry very good!!

Then hang on wall and enjoy! Emma loves to do her chores because at the end of everyday, she get's a penny for each chore done! I know a penny sounds so cheap, but here in Michigan we have a grocery store with a penny horse ride. And Emma loves to save up her pennies and take a few to the store!
