Construction Reward Sticker Board

How do reward and chore charts help?

Reward charts make target behaviours concrete and visible. A sticker for each success shows that effort is noticed and lets children see small steps add up over time.

Charts work best with a few clear goals, realistic expectations and a warm relationship. The aim is not to make children depend on rewards, but to give visible support while a new habit settles.

How to use it

1. Print the chart and agree on 2–4 clear goals with your child.
2. Phrase goals positively (“tidy up your toys”).
3. Let your child add the sticker after each success.
4. Look at the chart together at the end of the week and talk about progress.
5. Change or reduce the goals as habits settle.

Tips for parents

• Time together (a game, the park) is often a better reward than things.
• On missed days, simply try again tomorrow instead of taking stickers away.
• Separate charts for siblings reduce comparison.

These printables are general resources for everyday life; they do not replace individual assessment, diagnosis or treatment.
