Magentic Job Chart
measures 9in x 18in(to make your own..see instructions below)
Family Job Chart
(Large Vertical Board: measures 60 in x 13 in)(to make your own..see instructions below)
Finally, a job chart that is nice enough to hang right in your family room..where you will actually see it and use it. This is the job chart that started it all. I designed it to be used for 5 children.
The top magnetic section holds the magnets that are not in use. There are 5 sections below that. (one for each child) I place the assigned jobs above each child's name and they move it below their name when they complete the job. It would be very easy to place the names at the top of each section and put a line down the center with the words "assigned & completed" on each side. Do whatever works best for you. I just preferred a more formal look.
This board is vertical, with the youngest child's section at the bottom, easily within her reach. The magnets are normally stored at the top (not easily within a two year old's reach) :)
Smaller Family Job Chart
This chart is still waiting to be customized with names, but it gives you an idea with different colors and a smaller size. It measures 36 in x 9 in, so it will hang in a much smaller space and keep it out of reach with toddlers. With 6 sections, it can be used for 3-6 people, depending on how you prefer to use it. For 3 people, give each person a section with their name and a section below for completed jobs. With 5 children, use the top section for magnets not in use and 1 section for each child. Lots of possibilities!

Of course, the best part of the job chart is the magnets. I used these square glass tile magnets on my chart. I love them! You can purchase them at www.stick2it.biz. If you prefer a different look, with words or something else, you can purchase everything you need to make your own magnets too.
