Doing Chores = Getting Paid?

Have you ever thought about what your child will do for a living "someday"?

Mowing the Lawn
Babysitting
Errands
Cleaning windows
Cleaning the garage
Cleaning house
Raking the carpets
Weeding the garden/lawn
Spreading mulch

Picking up pet poop

... you get the idea.

More to come... and lessons about how to do them right!
