Kids and Chores: GoalForit!!

It is a New Year and with it comes re-evaluate what is working and not working in our lives, making goals, and just trying to get a fresh start.  GoalForIt.com is the perfect place to get started.  You can organize goal setting, to do lists, and behavior charts.  Goalforit!! is a new online resource that provides free solutions for personal success.  I am getting started with their Chore Chart feature.


My girls have a real hard time doing chores around the house.  I end up doing the things they don't just because it is less of a hassle.  Well...I am sick of it.  They need to learn responsibility, and Goalforit's chore charts are perfect.  I have customized charts for my girls that I print off, and use stickers to fill in what they do.  Then either daily or at the end of a week we will get on the site, and put in their marks, and let them see what rewards they are able to earn.  I was able to pick the chores they earn, and then assign the amount of "moolah" they receive for doing each chore.  Then I am also able to assign my own rewards for certain values.  My girls are getting so excited to cash in their "moolah."

I hope this helps them stay motivated to help around the house, and feel accomplished in what they help with. I feel this will also help with money management.   I am looking forward to setting up their Behavior Charts too, and focusing on what is right and wrong.  I want it to help them strengthen their judgement and behavior in and outside of the home.

The site is easy to navigate, I had my daughter's chore charts set-up and printed off within 15minutes, and it only took that long because I couldn't decide on the design for them.  Get 2012 started off right!!

Have fun getting things organized in your life, and setting your family up for success.
