Week 1: Kick-off to Summer Woo hoo we made it! Give yourself a pat on the back because YOU deserve it! Those last few weeks of school either go by in the blink of an eye, or they drag on FFOORREEVVVEERR. Summer is a time to relax and recharge. So many aspects of our day-to-day change during the summer months. I love the idea of later bedtimes and turning off my alarm, but I’ve quickly realized over the years that kids need structure and routine to stay regulated. After some trial-and-error, OK let’s be honest, ALOT of trial-and-error, we found something that works for our family! As parents, we all know the struggle of balancing the ideal versus reality. Believe me, I have landed flat on my face over the years trying to find the balance. After making some adjustments, I realized balancing responsibility with some freedom has helped motivate my kids. I created this chore chart to help keep my kids on a schedule. The added bonus, it also helps me prolong access to screens and share household responsibilities. When my boys wake up, usually between 8-10 am, they come downstairs for a breakfast check-in, or as we like to call it a “Staff Meeting”. They share what they want to do for the day (ride bikes, go to the park, pool, movies, beach, etc). Then we discuss what they have to do and what chore is listed on their chart. This has been a great way to practice taking responsibility, delaying access to screens, and rewarding their efforts with some added choice/freedom. ✨Tori ✨ toriw@letslearntutoring.com Director of Advocacy & Consulting |
