Question

Chores were not popular at my house. My children didn’t like to do chores. They always saw me do chores, but they hardly ever helped me do them. A year ago, I made a game called “The Endless Chore Game”. It is really great. Here is how the game works.

I made a card with forty squares (方框), and I write a different chore on each square. There chores can be easy and interesting like making dessert. Then my family rolls the dice (骰子) to decide what chores we have to do. There are also a few squares with fun things, like watching TV. If you are lucky, you can watch TV while the others are doing chores.
