120: Allowance Made Simple: Our Family’s Chore Chart System
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Are your kids constantly asking for things but complaining every time you ask them to help around the house? 🙋♀️ Yep, that was our house too...until we tried something new.
In this week’s Burnt Pancakes: Momversations, I’m sharing how we introduced a chore and allowance chart for our three boys and why it’s already making a difference. From teaching gratitude and the value of money to cutting down on the whining (hallelujah!), this little system has been a game-changer.
I’ll walk you through:
- Why we realized our boys needed a chore/allowance system
- How we decided what chores are just part of living here vs. “paid” chores
- The way our chart works and how we set chore values
- Alternative ideas you can try if a chart isn’t your style
- What we’ve learned after three weeks (including why I now keep a stack of $1 bills in the house 😂)
Plus, hear how one of my boys surprised me by wanting to save his money instead of spend it!
👉 If you enjoyed this episode, share it with a friend who’s also trying to figure out chores and allowance with their kids—we’re all in this together.
