No one should be left alone in the kitchen after dinner to clean up.

It’s not just Mom or Dad’s job to pick up the house.

Does it seem easier to do all the work around house rather than ask for help?

The first step for working as a family team is to coordinate your efforts.  Start by partnering up with your family, assigning two people to work together to get things done.  It can be during dinner time when two people cook and two people clean up.  It can be a mass effort when everyone picks up for 5 minutes after dinner to get the house straightened up.  Think about how quickly a task can be done when there are lots of people getting it done.

How do you get your family on board? Does your family know they are a team?  What does a team do to work together?  It’s all in the conversations you have with your family to share expectations.  When you are modeling how to work as a team is when it has the most impact.  Above all acknowledge and generously praise each person’s contribution in the team.  It definitely takes more effort to bring your team together, but it is worth the effort.   Make this Your Most Organized Year Ever by working as a family team.
