{toddler routine chart}

January 21, 2013

I have been toy­ing with the idea of mak­ing a chore chart for my daugh­ter for some­time now. She is only 3 years old, but she loves to help around the house and those check marks give her SO much satisfaction!

When I sat to make this, I was think­ing to myself, how do I draw break­fast? I needed pic­tures because she can’t read or spell yet and I wanted this to be some­thing she could use inde­pen­dently. Then it struck me! I could use pho­tographs instead of pic­tures! Find­ing pho­tos of our every­day rou­tine was very easy for this insta­gram junkie…

She has so far enjoyed hav­ing this chart. One thing I learnt quickly– I had just printed two pic­tures for food, and that didnt work. If I had a chicken nugget photo, then there bet­ter be chicken nuggets on the plate! Since our girl is a very slow eater, this chart has helped her at the din­ing table. She loves know­ing what is com­ing next, and I love that I have her meals planned already!

  1. What a fun idea!

  2. Great idea. Mine are barely two, but they are already lov­ing to ‘help’ me. Maybe I could do some­thing sim­i­lar with very sim­ple ‘chores’
