Are there any weekly (or monthly) planners out there clear enough (and appealing) for young children to follow maybe with a reward chart system build in? I could draw one up but rather it was something reusable


Trying to get the 6 year old to remember school events/activities and to practice voilin/piano/do homework etc.

Got the same problem. Bought a few bags of really nice beads from John Lewis and they can earn one for practice / reading / generally helpful around the house etc. When the jar is filled, there's the promise of a treat.....or could do when they get X number. The beads are really pretty so they like choosing. (Haven't worked out yet that the bigger ones fill the jar quicker - but sure they'll learn!!)


They know the concept of pebbles / pom-poms etc from school so it ties in well. And depending on how big the jar is, they can get rewards quickly or work towards something more major. Also has the benefit of being able to take away a bead if they don't play by the rules!!

I don't know about wall planners but what really works in our house for music practice is having a set time - 8:15am is a good time every day when our 7 year son will do his 15 min instrument practice (alternating each day between drum kit & keyboards). I've been really pleased with the result as I don't have to nag and he just accepts this as practice time.

    • You don't need a gym to lose 10kg. Get a set of dumbbells and maybe a resistance band, find a HIIT channel you like on youtube and workout in your room, eat clean and go out every day. £115/mo is ridiculous. I thought they were supposed to be about £20 to £30 and most people give up come February anyway.
    • Point taken..I go 3-4 times a week and have done every week for several years however £115 a month is still a lot of money for many people (myself included) for a 'non essential' One can if one wishes excersise by running or Cycling, swimming once in a while. Gym membership IS a luxury...
    • Tawny owls are hooting in Dawsons Heights very near me. But very elusive birds. Sadly now on the amber list.  I have heard the owls every night for the past couple of weeks  It is good to know they are here. They are quite loud so I think they are very near. I have never seen an owl in the wild before and wish I  could  see them.
