Clip Chart (Behavior Chart)

Clothespin for each kid to be clipped to the side of the chart-- begin each day on green:

1 pieces of paper
Laminate it
Hang it
Use it
Hope it works

(If they get to purple, the reward will be different depending on what we can offer at bedtime each night--likely that kid will get to come downstairs for an extra book with Mommy or Daddy all by themselves)

5 weekday lunches (vegetarian) + Snacks

I have 3 children.... one in 1st grade, one in preschool that goes til 12:30pm, and a baby.
I don't know about you, but by the time we go to make lunches it's VERY late, and our braisn are fogged up and it just seems SO HARD.
I had some help from my friend Mimi (holla!) and I've decided this is the easiest way to get the lunches done.  SAME LUNCHES week to week!  So-- here's the 'final' chart.
The school is Kosher and the preschool is Kosher AND nut-free, so MWF lunches are Kosher AND nut free, Tue/Thur are Kosher.

Here's hoping for an easier year of lunch-making!

It takes a village

I feel like when most people say "it takes a village" , what they really mean is:

"I'll point out what you are doing wrong."
