Chore ChartsChore charts are great for helping a child know what is expected each day and to provide your child with positive reinforcement for helping around the house.Note: You will need Adobe Reader installed (instructions below) and to temporarily turn off any pop up blockers to open a chart or hold down the CONTROL button while clicking. Always provide lots of praise for each chore completed as indicated by a sticker, picture or check mark placed on the chore chart. Also, make sure to exchange every 3-5 stickers for other rewards or the stickers/picture etc. will start to lose value. Other rewards can include special activities, toys or desirable items. • Sample chore lists by age for the chore charts • Compliance strategies for defiant children
When I say pictures, I am referring to one of the printable behavior charts, as shown on the right, where you would let your child place the picture (basketball) for each day or for each specific chore he or she completes. For more information and to print one of these charts, click on the basketball picture.You will need Adobe Reader (the latest version is recommended) installed on your computer in order to open and print a chart. You can get Adobe Reader here (a new window will open so you can download it without leaving this page, but you will need to temporarily disable any pop up blockers to open the new window and the charts). If you want to open the file in your browser window, just click on the chart. However, if you want to download the file to view later, then right-click on the link and choose "Save Target As" or "Save File As." Then select where you want to save the file on your hard drive. Once you have saved the file, locate where you saved it, and double click to open. In order to print, open the downloaded file, and select the "Print" option. Along with the use of chore charts, I have found the following techniques to be very helpful in getting compliance from children to do chores.
