To make your evening less hectic with the kids try making out a list of things they need to do. At supper make out the to do list.
Make one for each child. Instead of verbal instructions to each child and getting them to remember this helps our evening go smoother. As they get each one done they check it off, at the end of the list we do a quick inspection on how they did and lavish them with praise for a job well done. It gives them a little more independence and the feeling of being nagged by one more thing to do is not an issue.
Don't forget to put a fun item at the end to make the list easier to get through!
Example:
Take out trash Put away your laundry Lay out your clothes for school Eat a bowl of ice cream!
