Thousands of visitors a month visit my website looking for chore charts. Charts are such a useful tool in a family; partly because they can be used in a variety of ways and customized to fit each unique situation.

Knowing what you are trying to accomplish by using a chore chart can greatly improve your chances of success.

I set up this blog specifically so you can tell me what you are trying to achieve in your own family by using a chore chart. In return, I'll share with you some insights I have learned through nearly 30 years of parenting my own kids.


Here are some common reasons why parents choose to use chore charts:

• Improving structure/routine
• Discipline/attitude helps
• Improving organizing/cleaning
• Instilling a sense of team work
• Relationship building

Do any of these categories fit your reasons for using chore charts? Or do you have another reason for using this incredibly popular parenting tool?
