For instance, clearing the table is always done right after eating. Trash is taken out immediately after kitchen clean up. Bed is made right after dressing. The more you develop these routines, the less reminding you will have to do. With more than one child you can rotate chores, but keep in mind it will take extra effort to develop new routines.
Visual reminders help kids stay on track.
A poster, chart or job-board can help kids stay focused. Train and encourage. Use a four step process when introducing a new job. First, you do the job, narrating as you work, while the child watches. Next, do the job together.
