IT TAKES A TEAM TO KEEP IT CLEAN!
This job rotation board has been in place for 2 years now. It isn't always used to its fullest potential, BUT -- everyone has a "tidy up" job for an area of the house -- labeled with the washers -- AND a dinnertime job.
Sometimes we rotate weekly, during summer and holidays we rotate daily so that no one does dishes a whole week for the long days of summer. Sometimes it stays for a few weeks -- I don't stress about the roatation! I have explained to the kids that I'm in charge and I will be as fair as possible but always remember --- Life just is not fair!
The household area jobs have been placed according to size of job and age of child. Those haven't rotated in months! We have 2 older teenagers at home and their assignment is to help one of the youngest 2 kiddos.
It isn't fancy and I didn't use any vinyl lettering -- but it is functional and practical! I even just used a piece of scrap board from the garage and settled for the double hooks to cut down the cost.
Functional doesn't always have to be beautiful!
