How do you manage "as needed" chores--for example, putting away laundry or organizing books--things that don't necessarily need to be done on a predictable day of the week?
Good question...at the bottom of my older kids' weekly chore charts, there's a spot for them to check off laundry since that's a Friday chore. Things like that don't really belong in the daily chores but I still wanted to have a place for them at the bottom. You could add this in each week (just write it at the bottom) or call it something like "bonus chore" where you decide what extra area might need attention that particular day or week without having to give it a name on the chart.
