I'm still working on a daily list for each child. I am going to combine all the applicable portions of each of the above into a separate sheet for 9, 7 and 4 year old and print them out for them to have... probably tape them up in the girls bedroom or our hallway.

I found some great scripture verses to print here.

I might have to tweak this a little more but we will see how it works this week.
