helpful routines.

I'm Tina, the founder of Mindfulmazing, mindfulness teacher, accountant, and

mom to one little boy.

an attitude of gratitude, develop resilience, practice mindfulness, and
regulate emotions so they can face life’s challenges with confidence.

BENEFITS OF CHORES FOR KIDS:

Even though you may feeling like you are banging your head against a wall,
or sounding like a broken record, encouraging your kids to participate in
household responsibilities has numerous benefits for your kids.

The Parenting Centre states: Children who do have a set of chores have higher
self-esteem, are more responsible, and are better able to deal with frustration
and delay gratification, all of which contribute to greater success in school.

Furthermore, research suggests that involving children in household tasks at

an early age can have a positive impact later in life. Kids begin to view
themselves as important contributors to the family.

This new mindset brings connection and an increased sense of self. (and
self-esteem.)

One day your kids will leave the house, go away to school, or get a job, it’s
crucial they know how to do wash the dishes or clean a washroom.

These are necessary life skills. Don’t get caught in this trap: Doing too much for
your kids and expecting nothing back. Teach your kids the skills of everyday
living.

HOW TO USE YOUR NEW CHART:
Print the chart color your child prefers + all of the chore cards and stickers. I
recommend printing on a thick stock paper, so it's easier to hang, not as
flimsy, and can handle some wear ‘n’ tear.

This step isn't necessary, but boy oh boy, it sure takes your chart to a whole
new level of fun. Do you have a laminator? (If you don't have one, I like this
one) Laminate the chart, the cards, and even the stickers. We all know kids are
hard on things, so now you won't have to print your chart and cards every
time they get a little beat up.

The next step is the icing on the cake. It's a must-have, in my opinion. You'll
need some Velcro stickers. Attach one side of the Velcro sticker to the task
card, and one side to the chart. Ensure that you don't mix up the sides. (i.e., the
"hook" side should be on the chart, and the "furry" side on the cards.) You can
now move the cards around at your leisure.

Start building your child's chore chart based on the tasks you'd like to focus on.
Upon completing each chore, instruct your child to place a sticker beside the
task completed on the appropriate day of the week. And once you have all the
stickers on your chart, give them a big hi-five for a job well done!

You will also need to decide on an appropriate reward for your child. This is a
personal choice, and you do have a few options. You can tie the chores to an
allowance or use the tasks to earn privileges (like more screen time or a night
at the movies).
