A ways back, I did a post on some charts for my niece and nephew. Pictures of simple step by step instructions to help them along with a few daily tasks.
A friend of mine has a bunch of super cool little boys that were in need of some chart action too! I asked her to formulate a list of a few things they wanted to work on. She came back with:
Going on a Walk
Dinner Time Rules
Church Time
I got to work with the list of specifics that she had given me. I went with one chart for hanging near the dinner table, a second chart for home discussions on 'Rules for Safe Walks' plus travel sized flip book for impromptu chats whilst walking (if need be), and finally a church activity bag with chart/drawing surface for the little dudes to write on with dry erase crayons (which are super cool by the way, you should get some).....one side with 'the rules', the other a blank slate for creative expression via crayon!
I am excited to hear how the boys like them and hope they will be a helpful tool for mama and daddy to talk about expectations in each situation!
We LOVE them so much! The boys like referring to them every. single. night. at dinner time. And they are helping us learn to control the "squirmies." Thanks, Dharmski!!!
