[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Suggestions for you: Have the three eldest start helping with chores. Twins can turn their clothes right side out, twins and 4 can put their folded clothes in their drawers, all can match up their socks. 2 can put their dishes on the table (no food on them), 4 and twins can put dishes in the sink after, twins can take care of placemats and wipe down the table after dinner. Twins are old enough to run and get a towel to clean up their own spills. Do school for the twins, set up 4 with a few activities on the same theme and allow the younger children to listen and join in when interested. So, I’d suggest a letter, a number, a color, and a shape per week, with definite plans for the twins and loose plans for 4. Utilize tools like magnetic white boards, dry erase markers and foam magnets to teach phonics, basic math and spelling. Take a look at fun with mama and other sites with theme packs.[/quote] Thank you. We already do all of these things. You forgot to answer the question - what does your support network look like? [/quote] For me? Twin k and 4th. Grandparents have here for four days, but they’re a hindrance, not a help. The kids are the network, for now.[/quote]
