Allowance
Posted By pamelamyers on July 8, 2017
Sam has been bugging the heck out of us for an American Girl doll. She knows there is a “Samantha” doll and now she is even more into the idea of owning one. I have told her a million times that they are ridiculously expensive so, no. I am not buying one. She asked me if she could earn money to buy one herself and since, frankly, she is old enough to be doing chores anyway, we said yes. We created a weekly chore chart of things that Sam is responsible for on a daily and weekly basis (helping to feed the cats, keeping her room neat, emptying upstairs trash, setting and clearing the table, dusting downstairs, etc.) She worked so hard this week that she earned her first allowance of $3.00 per week. You’re on your way to that doll, Samantha!
