I have 5 children and I have dubbed us the "drop and go family". What a great idea! I think we need a family council and start becoming the new and improved "pick up and be happy family" Thanks! :)Troop 220https://www.blogger.com/profile/04023183382244530690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7260216734032540750.post-25292296142322852732010-01-06T05:55:14.891-08:002010-01-06T05:55:14.891-08:00Sounds like my house!

This is great when it comes to switching out the old toilet paper roll for a new one or dropping back packs and shoes in the door way. If our kids break this rule then for a full day they have to pick up not only after themselves but after all their siblings. Its been a great way to keep them all motivated over the years! The siblings remind eachother daily cuz they hope someone forgets and has too pick up after everyone else for a day. <br />I love your new year resolution.Nelson Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06817913847842873811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7260216734032540750.post-1236983604358897792010-01-05T12:03:48.920-08:002010-01-05T12:03:48.920-08:00I love this!

I was really dreading it because I hate being dictated by a schedule, and was I ever wrong! I can't believe how easy it's been, and I am no longer yelling for them to help, and they are no longer whinning about helping. The only difference is we decided to pay them for their jobs and that way we reinforce money management and paying their tithing. It is a win-win!Lizzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06280042173347569010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7260216734032540750.post-12526345641475695092010-01-05T09:38:50.568-08:002010-01-05T09:38:50.568-08:00that's a great idea.

That was my problem when my kids were younger. I love your idea to "include" them in the reminding!! Good luck...
