Use a schedule to make responsibility routine

To help your child finish schoolwork and chores without needing frequent reminders, create a responsibility routine. Write down a schedule with specific times for schoolwork and studying, reading, chores and free time. If you stick to the routine, your child will know it's necessary to finish that math worksheet, set the table and lay out clothes for tomorrow before playing. Have your child check off each task after completing it.
