Behavior Charts for Kids
Here you can download free printable behavior charts for kids, including ADHD charts, good for daily use in school or home to help promote positive child behavior. Whether you are having trouble potty training a toddler or getting older children to do homework, using a potty chart or homework chart is a great way to motivate desirable responses.
Depending on the child and what their needs are, you will find many ways to improve different behaviors through the use of a chart. So, I have put together multiple pages with a variety of different types for you to choose from that you can download and print from your own home. Be sure to check out each page and determine which will work best for your child.
In addition, I highly recommend checking out my free eBook with great ways to help with other types of bad undesirable behavior in a child. When all strategies are used in combination with other ADHD or autism treatments, children will be more likely to succeed.
I think that using the resources provided below can be a fun way to get children back on track, but remember they are not intended to be used forever. Help your child learn a behavior and develop it as part of their routine, then with the use of praise and natural reinforcement they should be doing it without the use of a chart.
How to Use Kids Charts
Start here before viewing all of the printable behavior charts for children. It’s important to know how to use charts for kids in a way that will give you the best results. Many parents become discouraged when they don’t see a change in behavior right away.
As mentioned above, you don't want to use a chart forever. Therefore, it's important to learn ways to get a lasting change in behavior. so, be sure to check out the link above and read about these worthwhile tips.
Free Behavior Charts to Decrease Behaviors
The charts on this page allow you to use the template, with examples of different behaviors to target or you can write in specific behaviors to decrease for a child. It then provides the child a place to put a sticker for not doing those behaviors that day, color a star, or place a check mark for each day of the week. This can be good if you have a lot of behaviors to target for decreasing.
Printable Behavior Charts like a Token Board
These are great for younger children or children that are unable to read, in which you are only focusing on one behavior or generally all desirable behaviors. You can print them, laminate them and put velcro behind each one to have him/her place the token where it goes, while providing lots of praise and then practice counting with your child until the entire chart is full. Once full, your child will then get his/her prize! There are 7 of each included to be done once a day, or you could add each over the course of a period of time.
Printable Reward Charts with Stars
These allow you and your child to have a set goal in mind that must be met in order to obtain a reward. They are generally good for behaviors you want to increase, such as cleaning up toys, getting dressed independently, or brushing teeth. I have placed stars in each square for the child to color in themselves (this is so much fun!), but you may also choose to place a sticker over each star as well. There is one with sports balls, butterflies and circus animals. I created them in black and white so your child could color them and you don't need colored ink for them to look great when printed!
ADHD Behavior Charts
for increasing and decreasing behaviors
These are designed in mind for a child with ADHD symptoms or other more intense behavioral problems. They allow you to monitor behaviors you are hoping to increase and decrease by using a point system.
Each time your child does a desirable response (e.g. completes assigned chores for kids) he/she earns a point and each time your child does an undesirable behavior (e.g. curses or yells) he/she loses a point. Then, a goal is set for a certain number of points to be earned in order to obtain a reward.
Potty Chart
Potty training kids can be very challenging, especially for children with autism behaviors. However, using potty charts along with the potty training guide I have put together; you may actually find it fun to potty train! I know I had a blast using this proven system with my own kids and was amazed at how quickly they learned in one week after I implemented the strategies outlined on these pages.. In addition to this chart shown, I have created a few more free potty charts to offer a wider variety to choose from or let your child pick there own!
Free Printable Certificates for Kids
Once your child has filled out a behavior chart or accomplished a specifically hard task, giving them a certificate can be a great. way to reward their efforts and help them to feel proud of what they have done. There is a blank one you can fill out yourself on this page or you can print off one for having a clean room or helping others.
If you would like one for good behavior, good grades or being a Big Kid after potty training, these additional certificates for children will give you another easy way to help your child feel proud of their success.
