I have been using a home management binder for quite a few years now but I am always looking for new pages to use for it and new ways to tweak it to make it work even better for me.
Household chore charts and more come in handy to help you keep your home clean as well as organized.
Here are some freebie charts for you as well as your children:
- printable household chores checklist
- printable household chore list
- Free download pages from BusyBodyBook
- The Master Household Chore List
- Tipz Time - Free Printable Chore Charts
- www.Chartjungle.com
- Justmommies Home Organization Plan
- Chore Buster - Orgaize your household chores - for Free!
and two more that are not free but are popular.
- Managers of their Chores <--- this is the same company that has Manager of their Homes (I want these two books from them but will keep watching for them at the used bookstore or the annual used curriculum sale in our area)
Household Notebooks are great to keep you organized with the charts, a quick address book and more in one convenient place.
Here are some free ones to get your started:

If I get more free calendars than I can use though, I will use one of those instead of printing them out.
Up until a week again, I was using the momAgenda Kitchen Folio that I put my calendar pages in to write my menu plans on for the month. I also have a pantry list in there of what I have on hand (which needs to be updated again.) I had used that Folio so much that some of the pages had torn out of it and some where just about to come out so I bit the bullet and went ahead and disassembled the Folio and now all the menu plans and pantry inventory list is in my Home Management Binder once again.

What a lot of great home organization links you've pulled together in one place, Laura! You've got me thinking about putting together a fresh binder for the fresh year.

Hi Laura!! I hopped over from WUC... thanks for all your great resources. I have been a homemaker for a little over a year and a
ReplyDeleteHAPPY homemaker in our new house for 3 months and I was looking for a way to get more organizedi n my cleaning routine. the calendars from JustMommy were perfect. I am going to take her dailies and modify them for my own use and include my laundry/baking schedule. FANTASTIC!! I think that one of the things that we women get bogged down in is being overwhelmed with HOW much there is to do everyday. by chunking my chores/laundry/other responsibilities, I think we become even better housewives!!
