Do you have a summer chore chart<\/strong> for your kids? My guess is if school isn’t <\/em>already out, it will be soon! Those sweet cherub school age babies of yours are going to be hanging around your home each day while you try to run a successful child care business. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some providers I have met dread this time of year, which leaves them feeling a bit conflicted.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Most are excited to have their own kids home for summer break…but it can be taxing on their job as a child care provider. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many providers say they feel like they never get a break and it’s really hard to keep older kids busy while tending to younger children. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you ever tried to keep a group of older kids quiet while babies and toddlers are napping? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Eeshk. It’s not easy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adding just a tiny bit of structure that includes some give and take to your older kids’ day can really help bring balance to the situation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One way to do this is by creating a summer chore chart<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<\/a>\n\n\n

Today I am sharing a summer chore chart we used with our kids. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a child care provider\/mom, I didn’t have a lot of time to give my kids tasks or follow up with them to make sure they were completing them. I was too busy running a child care business!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We kept things very simple using this chart. In the heat of summer, one must conserve their energy and sanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
