Checklists

My motto is “why reinvent the wheel?”  There are lots of repetitive tasks and routines we do in our home and office, with our kids and our assistants.   Here are some ideas for check lists that make a difference.

Leave the house check list

• Post this on your child’s mirror and at the back door
• Include the “must have” items for the day, including homework,

Family routines check list

• Post this on the refrigerator or where every one can see it
• Include a column for each day of the week, and a row for each family member
• In each block list the responsibilities for the day
• Create partnerships so everyone works in pairs to get jobs done
