We have been wanting to teach T-Rex about paying his tithing. It is hard to teach a toddler who is just barely grasping numbers that we give one-tenth, but we attempted to monday night. His Grandma K sent him $10 for his birthday and we needed to put it somewhere, and teach him. So I took some little boxes that contained vitamins in them and then just covered them with some cute scrapbooking paper and added some stickers and walla! Now he has a place to put his money.
I also made a chore chart because I want him to start helping out. I used the simple chore chart tutorial here and then jazzed it up a little, because hers was too plain for me, and I had scraps left from the above project. Now I just need to go and get it laminated and I am good to go!
I liked this simple chore chart because he can't read yet, and these pictures are pretty self explanatory. It's easy to see what you have done and what you haven't. I just want to set the expectation before I begin homeschooling him that there are things that we need to do each day. We'll see how it goes!
