[quote=Anonymous]Do they get an allowance? I know the conventional wisdom now is "not to tie allowance to chores" but we found that money is a major motivator :) My boys roughly that age have chores like laundry, make bed, pick up toys, empty dishwasher, take out recycling. I write down about 2 chores per day for them on a board so it never gets overwhelming. No chores means no allowance, and they seem to jump right on them because they want to save money to buy stuff.
