NAMES ON MAGNETS!: New toy and fun

After reading these reviews I bought 2 of these for my 3 and 5 year olds. But I couldn't find any review listing the titles of the duties for those of you who want to know if this would work for you; which should be for the majority because it covers the majority. Here they are: getting ready for bed, dressing, bathing, clearing the table, putting away toys, keeping hands to yourself, sharing, brushing teeth, stop whining, apologize, say thank you, help with house/outside chores, don't tease, show respect, load/clean the dishwasher, put laundry in the washing machine, don't use profanity, set the table, take care of a pet, do homework, make the bed, tidy the room, they clear out the trash, keep your hands to you, plus 2 forms, to write your own. My 5 year old daughter jumped in as soon as we posted all of her assignments on the board. She was so excited and said I would do it again etc. She even added a little or usually didn't because she wanted more magnets; So we count her at the end of the week, assign a cash allowance for each magnet earned (maybe 5 cents), and she can get a small toy or treat at the end of the week. I calculated 7 days a week and 10 or she could make about 3.50 a week; it's big for you now!

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Slightly torn
