Chores/Home Blessings

I'm trying some new ideas to get the kids helping around the house more. Maybe this will help you guys or maybe you have tried something similar and can give me tips and tricks on how to make it work. 

I am doing a home blessing jar with a bunch of blessing (aka chores) to do around the house with a time limit.
You are only allowed to do it for 10 minutes if you get it done faster great if you don't get it done then stop where you are it's okay.
This way I don't get burned out. I might have to shorten it to 5 minutes since my kids attention spans aren't that long. :) and if you like the idea then you can change the time limit to something your kids can handle then set the timer and go.

While my family was discussing this we thought of chores like cleaning out the cars and Jerome says, "With supervision of course."

Hailey exclaims, "We don't have SUPER VISION! hahahahahaha"
She thought Jerome had said the funniest joke.
Then we all started laughing! :)



She is so fun! and funny!
