(Low) Tech Tuesday-Picture Schedule

Picture Schedules


It can be difficult to find ways to encourage children (and let's face it, adults) to complete tasks.  Picture schedules can help.  

Picture schedules do not have to be complex. About a month ago, I found myself in need of an on the spot picture schedule and reward system. As you can see, our son receives a star for each completed activity.  He is rewarded after 10 stars.  Phone time and fruit snacks are examples of rewards we use in our family. It helps to let your child chose the reward they will earn for completing the tasks.

You can use the reward as a learning experience.   Here, my son is making a pattern with his fruit snacks. He counted them, named
the characters, labeled the colors, and so forth.
