I’ve also divided up the meal chores. After each meal, we clean the dining room and the kitchen. I’ve assigned a big girl to each area – dining room, dishes, kitchen tidy.

- clear table
- scrape dishes
- wipe table and chairs
- sweep dining room
- push chairs in
- empty trash
- wipe counter
Cora and Marrissa work in the kitchen – one does the dishes and dishwasher, the other tidies the kitchen.
Dishes
- rinse dishes
- empty dishwasher
- fill dishwasher
- wash pots
- start dishwasher
Kitchen
- wash counters
- wash stove
- sweep / mop
- empty trash
