I bought this when my child was 3 and having horrible fits. Negative reinforcement did not work with him….no matter how long he would sit in time out, or how many toys he had taken away, etc. His behavior immediately got better once I showed him the magnets. He learned not to whine, keep hands to himself, etc. As soon as he started learning that bad behavior means “no magnets”, his temper tantrums ceased. We even added one that we call “listening ears”. He is now 4.5 years old and we still use the chart. He loves it! He started bringing home “bad notes” from the teacher at day care, so I spoke with her and told her about the magnet system. Now when he misbehaves and does not listen, she reminds him of the magnets and he behaves much better. This chart has been a lifesaver to our family!

This product couldn’t have been found at a better time for us. Our son has high functioning autism and this chart not only keeps him on his much needed schedule, but he’s positively rewarded for following the routine. We love this chart and are excited to utilize it daily!

Bought this for my 3 year old grandaughter. She can’t wait to get up every day, accomplish her “chores” and get a smiley. Her mom has determined an adequate number for her to shoot for and on Sunday, she gets to chose a reward for all her efforts. Each week they change up the goals and she start anew. It’s adorable hanging at her viewing height in the kitchen and extemely well constructed. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to start their child working on behavior and household chores.

As a behavioral health counselor, I do not consider this a “toy.” It is an attractive tool to increase responsible behaviors when used properly. This is great for ADHD and high functioning autism kids of ALL ages (teens tend to be immature in these categories and it is necessary to meet them at their current functional level) – and again when used properly. Some minor modifications are needed to have a functional chart, but most icons cover chores and expected behaviors. There are a couple blank icons so the caregiver can customize certain expectations they may have. Assigning a value to each token EARNED will accelerate progress (positive reinforcement – not bribes). Caregiver monitoring, consistency, and reinforcement is required or this chart will become useless at the fault of the caregiver.

I had looked for a way to get my child to start doing chores and he loves this responsibility chart. He is able to give himself stars for his jobs that he completes. I like the wide variety of chores to choose from and a couple of blank ones to create our own. I would definitely recommend this to anyone!
