How to use it
Choose one goal and say it in words your child uses.
Pick how many spots to fill. Fewer spots mean a sooner finish.
Choose what a full chart leads to, then print.
Add a sticker right after it happens, and follow through when it’s full.
Make it last: print on cardstock, laminate it or slip it into a sheet protector, and use a dry-erase marker or Velcro dots so you can use it again.
Questions parents ask
How many spots should we start with?
Start small so your child can reach the end soon. Five to ten spots is a common place to begin.
What makes a good reward?
Something small you can really follow through on, like a trip to the park or an extra story. Many families keep food out of it.
Is my child’s name saved anywhere?
No. A name you type stays in your browser so it can print on the sheet. It is never sent to us.
Is it really free?
Yes. One email unlocks this and every other tool in the library, and you can print as many as you like. Your email also brings one short story each Tuesday, and you can leave anytime.
