\"great-job\"<\/p>\n

When I had the cluster holiday\u00a0party at my house in December, a few au pairs commented on the chore and behavior charts I have posted in my family room. With four kids, I find it can be difficult to keep track of who has done what and who had gained or lost various priveleges. So, over the years, I have used various charts to keep everything on track.\u00a0 I have also created charts for host families and au pairs dealing with behavior\u00a0the children may be having.<\/p>\n

I uploaded a few of these charts in case some of you may find them helpful.<\/p>\n

Having chores teaches children that they are an important part of the family and their efforts count. This teaches responsibilty and promotes positive self-esteem.
