Today's Task: Split a big job up and assign different parts to different family members. Work as a team to accomplish the task.
"Whatever you do, work at it with all of your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men." Colossians 3:23 When the kids' rooms get too out of control, I will sometimes call a "Team Tidy." We throw everything in the middle of the room and then each child picks a particular theme and works on organizing those items that fit into the theme. For example: books, action figures, clothes, etc. The job is finished in a flash and no one gets overwhelmed. When we work together, we all take pride in the job we have completed as a team."

This is a great method for getting things done quickly as a team. We have done this a few times in common family rooms and the kids are always amazed at how quickly 'an impossible task' is finished in record time.
