Dadcaster, I’m starting a rewards chart / system for my toddler (thanks Santa! 🎅🏼) I want a super simple system to start that can eventually become a weekly allowance for chores. Has anyone done this before or have lessons they’d recommend? Follow this post and I’ll screenshot essay my system later this

Momcaster here I created one for a website I built for new moms back when I had toddlers. Want me to share it?

We used this for a while with my daughter when she was about 4. It had pictures associated with the chores so she didn’t need to know how to read. We equated each smiley face to a quarter or something like that. Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wooden Magnetic Responsibility Chart With 90 Magnets https://a.co/d/0sBA953

Would be hilarious to do this in crypto, with a token as currency and NFT for accomplishments. There may even be a market for it.

But if you’re not into that approach then the ‘ladder of doom’ thing is easy and popular. Consequence vs reward so less impact on the taking away of intrinsic motivation.

You might this sounds all a bit touchy feely, but I wish I’d read something like this when they were younger. The best thing I have done for my children is stop ‘expecting’ certain behaviour (which benefits me but they see no reason for) https://www.totstoteens.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Ladder-of-doom.pd

We did reward charts with my kids when they were little for things like potty training and bedtime. I printed one out and we kept it on the fridge. It had mini rewards after 3-5 steps and a big reward they were working for at the very end (step 30) which they picked out.

FWIW once mine were a little older I untethered routine things I expected them to do from earning allowance. Allowance comes from other tasks. Once they move into high school I plan to turn allowance into a personal budget which includes clothing, activities etc so they can really start managing money themselves.

In love tech, but a simple calendar on the wall has worked well for us.

This’ll destroy their intrinsic motivation for these things. I wouldn’t do this.

Key for us was to have max 3 or 4 items. Also beware of administrative overhead when it comes to tallying/rewards/etc. The “be respectful to others” row was always one on our chart was the best lesson teacher to the kids imo
