Chores have not gone very smoothly in this house lately. Enter the DAD. Using his management skills he helped the kids to develop team work and put them to work on the major rooms of the house today. It was amazing. They weren't fighting, they were helping each other and they were working together. The great thing was that I got to work on some other things that I haven't gotten too because of trying to pick up after everyone.
Another great thing is that as they are working as a team, they each have a vested interest in the room and they are very careful to be sure that no one messes up what they have cleaned!
They worked room by room and then took a playing break and before I knew it the house looked pretty great. I hope that this is the start of a new trend in cleanliness!
