With summer break almost here I’ve been thinking of how to manage my kiddos effectively while they are home. Like I’ve said before… I’m kind of a free-form Mom which can be fun, but not always productive! I’m also trying to teach my kiddos the value of work and how to manage their money in a healthy way, every parents quandary! And in walks…
I’ve gotta say… I was a little skeptical. It’s just one more ineffective “job chart” that I subject my kiddos to. Come on admit it, we’ve all tried’em. Well My Job Chart has totally proven me WRONG {yes, I said wrong, I’ll admit it.}
This site is AMAZING!! It takes a little bit of time to set-up, let’s just say about 30 minuets, an hour at the most depending on how many kiddos you have. But once it’s set-up it works like a dream.
The basic gist…
Every family member has their own separate login. Isn’t this a fun welcome screen?
This is the parents home page. This is where you assign jobs, and manage rewards. It’s super easy to use and navigate.
I love how they set-up the job assignment page, very user friendly. You have morning jobs and evening jobs, you can assign jobs to happen on a daily basis or be crazy and shake things up a bit!
This is the job screen that your kiddo will see. When they finish a job they check the box and when all jobs are complete they get a BIG ROUND OF APPLAUSE!! How fun is that? As the parent you can set it up to receive emails or texts when they finish so that you are in the loop. At the end of the day you’ll receive an email with everyone’s progress for the day.
Now, the fun stuff…
With each job completed, they earn points. In the rewards center you sit down and decide what rewards your kiddo would like to work for. You can set-up things like TV time all the way up to a trip to Disneyland and everything in-between. They can also earn straight-up money and even spend it in their very own Amazon store!!! How cool is that for them to watch how their money grows and then to be able to buy something ONLINE and have the box sent just to them!! I don’t know about you but that’s COOL!!
They even have an option to save some of their points to give to charity. What a wonderful way to teach your kiddos to think of others and not just themselves.
All I have to say is BRAVO! Way to go My Job Chart people… I now have hope for a fun and productive summer with my four kiddos! Head on over… IT’S FREE and will take the chore stress out of your life forever!!!

We have been using this cool little tool for about 4 months and it is still going strong. My kids love it because they can track it and see where they are at.

My husband and I have been talking about getting a job chart going for our 4 boys so they can earn money towards new bikes. This is awesome!
