I love it! Thanks for linking to me, without that I would have never found this - love the name too! I agree with all your ideas and FYI regarding chores: my daughter was helping me at age 2 with everything, granted I was a single mom of one child so it was much easier than dealing with two other ones while trying to instill some order and chores ... she had fun folding clothes with me and wiping down counters, etc etc. Of course I may have had to refold the clothes or not give her chemicals only water .. but she had fun and it created an ongoing routine of her doing chores. I will say she is almost 7 and this past couple of weeks she has been a MESS, so I am trying to figure out where all her daily routines to do chores went!?

Thanks to my labrodoodle, we have them all the time! Little Pea love to have a "routine," and she makes me run down all our activities in order for the day. She is getting to where she can recite the routine depending on the day of the week.<br /><br />She also empties out the silverware from the dish washer and she loves to wipe down the kitchen table. I think having pictures is a great idea! I can tell you those fur galls spontaneously regenerate! Thanks to my labrodoodle, we have them all the time!

She loves using the dust buster to help with the dust bunnies that seem to run rampant this time of year (compliments of 2 doggies and a hairy cat). :) <br /><br />I love the idea of the picture chart - we have a book that her Nana got her that has a clock with hands and a schedule of activities - she <i>loves</i> that book, so I bet she would have been receptive to a picture chart at Brendan's age for sure! :)<br /><br />Wishing you a Happy Mother's Day! :) I started giving the Princess Nagger chores around that age – simple things like putting her shoes where they belong (instead of just kicked off wherever – which gets undermined by Dada kicking off his shoes wherever…) and picking up her toys.

I don't think he is too young to handle chores. We have our three year old help her sister clean their room every Saturday. She is in charge of picking up all the dirty laundry off the floor and putting it in the garage by the washer and dryer. She also helps out with the dishes sometimes.<br /><br />Have a wonderful weekend and a Happy Mother's Day! Great ideas! I don’t think he is too young to handle chores.

How do they grow so fast? It seems like my house is always in a mess. It's crazy. I understand your need for structure. Ah those famous dust bunnies. How do they grow so fast?
