Organize It

2. Clipboard Command Center ~ We spend a lot of time in the kitchen everyday so what better place than this to have a command center?! It features a meal planning board, dry erase note board, magnet board and chore charts. Everything you need to plan your week.
3. Kids Chore Chart & Allowance Clipboards ~ Each child has a morning clipboard. These clipboards outline the tasks they need to do to prepare to leave home. If they follow the clipboard and mark off each item, then I clip a dollar bill to the clipboard once they are gone and Im cleaning up.
4. Kids Magnetic Chore Chart Clipboard ~ List the chores to be completed on the left column with a magnetic marker. When the chore is finished slide the magnetic marker over to the “done” column.
5. Grocery Planner Clipboard with Free Printable ~ This grocery planner is fantastic! It adheres to your refrigerator with magnets to help keep you organized. The free printable includes a daily menu and a shopping list. You can add your pen and coupons in the little box next to the clipboard.

7. Creative Triplet Moms 3 clipboard assigned duty for the week ~ This clipboard is for chore duties as well as an allowance system. If the children do the chores listed on the clips then they will receive their weekly allowance. If they don’t complete their chores then money is deducted. At the end of the week the amount is tallied up.
