Our brainstorming activity had a good flow of ideas. We first thought of all of the major household focuses: the kitchen, yard work, laundry, cooking, shopping, cleaning, and morning preparation. Then, we wrote down many of the tasks associated with those areas.
We decided to narrow down our options to kitchen tasks. We liked a few of our ideas in our mind map such as food preparation, taking out the trash and activities involving dishes. We took those ideas one step further and categorized them into kitchen chores. We will be shadowing activities in the kitchen such as cutting food, opening supplies, moving supplies around, and mixing to see where we have the most difficult and would benefit from a new idea.
