Fridge Magic Multi-Purpose Magnetic Reward Star Chart - Durable 40x30cm Board for Behaviour & Task Tracking

I got this for my niece's for Christmas. It's really sturdy and much heavier than I thought it would be. It's magnetic and has little magnetic stars that can be reused (much more convenient than stickers). It also comes with a dry erase pen so you can add and erase chores, names, rewards, etc. as you need to. The best thing about this board, to me, is that it works for 3 children. I didn't want to spend a fortune buying each of my 3 nieces a star chart and so I was thrilled to find this one. Each child can be assigned a color, so even if they don't read yet, they know which stars/reward slot/name slot is theirs. I was really happy with the product and plan on purchasing again once I have children of my own.

I bought this chore chart for my three foster kids. They were doing okay with their chores, but easily forgot them. Now that we have this chart hanging on a wall in the living room they remember everything they need to do. There are 10 chore options. and 7 magnetic chores. You can either use those (which are pretty normal basic chores) or you can write in your own. We wrote in our own. Our ten chores are: Brush Your Teeth Go To Bed Good (no whining) Do Your Homework Put Your Homework Away Put Your Toys Away Pick Up Trash (snack wrappers, toy wrappers, etc) Do Math Flash Cards Read For 15 Minutes Put Your Clothes On Eat All Your Food Just to give people an idea of a few chore options. My kids are 7, 8, and 10. All do these chores pretty happily- and excitedly run over to put their stars on every day. They ask "I did [this]! Can I put my star on now?". We also have a rewards system. At the end of the week there are three prizes for the kids to choose from. The person with the most stars gets to choose first (getting the best prize- of course). And the second most stars gets to choose second. Third most stars chooses last. This chart is made for 1 to 3 children. There are three different colors of stars. Red, yellow, and blue. At the top of the page there are three "Name: _____" spaces for the three different colors. On the bottom of the board there are little boxes that read "Once I get ___ stars I will _______________". We don't use that part of the board- but I could see how for other children it would really motivate them. My kids are motivated in the competition to win the most stars. Plus they really love visually seeing how many chores they did. It rewards them every time they do something, because they get to physically put the star on the board. The kids can also visually see all of their chores. They're less likely to forget to brush their teeth or read for 15 minutes if they can see it listed on the board. It gives them a visual of what they need to do that day. They're pretty awesome at finishing all 10 chores now-a-days and I'd say this chart has made a huge difference. The set comes with 100 stars in each color (red, yellow, and blue). You have to punch the stars out from a sheet. They're magnetic and stick to the board well. They are easy to move around, but are strong enough to not fall off easily. The board also comes with a dry erase marker. The board lists the days 'Monday - Sunday', which is kind of weird. But it works.

We had a difficult time finding a single reward chart for our twins to use. This one fit all of the requirements we were looking for. It handles more than one child (3), has multiple lines for different goals and allows you to note the reward being worked toward. The board is very sturdy and easy to hang (via an attached string). The dry erase surface works well and cleans easily. The kids love the design and colors. The only room for improvement is with the stars which are a bit thin. This leads to two issues. First, they can be difficult to get hold of. Second, the magnet is not very strong and attempts to slide the stars around the board often lead to them falling to the floor or sticking to your finger. On the whole, this is a minor annoyance and we are happy with our purchase.

This chart worked great at helping my kids (ages 6 & 9) be self motivated in doing their homework, getting ready for bed and school, using table manners, picking up, etc. We took a lot of time and as a family came up with the list that would earn them stars. Then we gave them a few rewards to pick from each week, like picking dinner, choosing dessert, extra technology time, etc. We also came up with a list of behaviors that would result in loss of stars. We agreed in advance that the chart could not be used as a bartering device or it would go away. It was a great experience during the school year. We are now looking into how we can use it during the summer break.

It came slightly bowed. It hangs only by a string- similar to a shoe lace. Star magnets are very thin and the magnet isn't very strong. They fall off the chart often, especially if it is bumped or while adding a star to it. They stick better to my fridge. Same with the rectangular chores, pre-printed. I don't use all of the ones it came with so I stuck them to the back of the board. Since there is no where to store extra stars, we slid then to the top of the board. It gets messy but there isn't a place for them. Also, dry erase marker doesn't really wipe off well if it is on there for a week. I have to wet a cloth to rub it off and it still leaves a black smudge. BUT one board works for up to 3 kids! Saves $$. I use it for 2 - blue and red. I use the extra yellows (I call them gold) for super jobs. I wanted to get the Melissa and Doug Responsibility chart but I didn't want to buy two. My friend has that one. I like how that one has pictures to accompany the chores and a spot to store unused magnets. This one had a few more chore rows, which helped me since my kids have different responsibilities due to their ages (7&3).

Perfecto!!! Justo lo que necesitaba! Un buen sistema para negociar con los más pequeños! Además es muy bonito y muy cómodo.

Used daily. As described and of good quality.

Meine Tochter (8) lässt sich super durch diese Belohnungstafel motivieren brav zu sein oder gewisse Aufgaben zu erfüllen. Die Sterne stellen bei uns mittlerweile eine Art eigene Währung dar, sie kann sich um ihre verdienten Sterne bestimmte Dinge "kaufen", wie zum Beispiel ein Eis, oder einen gemeinsamen Ausflug, wobei ich versuche meiner Tochter eher besondere Familienaktivitäten als Belohnung schmackhaft zu machen, als ihr (z.B. Spiel)Sachen zu kaufen.

Package include everything as per picture, good quality. Kids love tracking their behaviour :))

Ce tableau convient parfaitement pour mettre en place des bonnes pratiques avec les enfants (politesse, participation à la vie de famille) Le tableau est en anglais, mais cela attise la curiosité des enfants qui apprennent cette langue à l'école. A voir sur le long terme.
