As a work-at-home-mom, I need all the help I can get - especially in the as we get back into the swing of things this fall. As PTA president, I'm also spending countless volunteer hours planning for the school year.
With all that we are juggling during the fall, staying organized is key! My daily housekeeping checklist helps me break up the household chores into manageable bites that my kids can help out with this summer.

Teaching kids personal responsibility and a good work ethic is so important. If your child can operate a smartphone or tablet, he or she can definitely help with chores around the house!
One of the biggest things the kids help me with is actually laundry. Our washer and dryer are both front-loading, so it's simple for them to switch the laundry for me. I'm still working on getting them to help with the folding and putting away, but this saves me a lot of time.
There are a lot of simple chores kids can (and should) do. Picking up their clothes or toys is a simple way they can help with clutter around the house.
These household cleaning checklist cards for kids are a great way to get the kids to help out. In our home, we use an easy reward system. Ask your children to do all the items listed for one room, or for younger children, have them complete all the colors on one card to earn things like screen time or a new book.
For these cards, simply cut them and laminate. Punch the corners and add a ring to keep them together. The kids can use dry erase markers to check off the items they've done.
