Chores: Many Hands Make Light Work AND a Giveaway

Housework

Nobody likes it.  I mean really?  Maybe you enjoy it, but I don't.  Over the years I have learned that it is a necessary evil and I have come to enjoy the routine of it and the order that is the result......I will never love scrubbing the toliets or bathtubs or cleaning up little people's rooms.  I don't do it perfectly.  I probably don't even do it well but I do the best I can with what I have.  I have come to accept that my best is enough.

Part of housework, or maybe home management, is chores.  Chores are the housework done by little people.  Oh, how I struggled the first few years to get my older 2 children to do chores.  I finally resorted to paying them.  Now that they are older they do better.  Now I am training the little ones. 

This month I was asked to review Chores: Many Hands Make Light of the Work for the May review as part of the Gabby Moms blogging program.  This isn't a book or an audio.  It is a bundle.....4 audios and 6 e-books, all pertaining to the topic of chores.  Chores for you and chores for your children.  How to get chores done.  How to encourage others to do their chores.  Efficient ways to get things done.  Lorrie also discusses the Biblical basis behind chores and our attitudes regarding work.

Here is a list of everything that is included in this bundle:
Audios:
God Blesses This House, but He Doesn't Clean It
God Blesses This House, but He Doesn't Organize It
12 Super Simple Time Saving Tips
Cheerful Children and Challenging Chores

E-books:
Neat and Tidy, Tried and True Organization Tips
Turn Housework Into Fun and Games
Teach Your Kids How to Clean a Kitchen
Teach Your Kids How to Clean a Bathroom

Tidbits that I took away from this bundle:
**We are blessed that we need help - God has blessed us abundantly with our home, possessions and family!
**Give children guidelines BEFORE they start
**Make every minute of the day count
**I LOVE the marble chore reward method.....I guess you will have to get the bundle to see what I am talking about :)

NOW.......I have a giveaway for you :)  YOU can get a copy of this bundle for yourself.  To enter go HERE and leave a comment before May 31st and one winner will be selected and notified via email.

I received this product as part of the Gabby Moms review program in exchange for an honest and fair review.

I read today that we need to regard our work at home as our career paved out for us by God. During those nasty chores, we should be praying thanking God for having dishes to wash, shirts to fold, grocery to put away. Admittedly, I'm still working on that ;)
