This is a great product to start kids on everyday chores, like pick up your toys or set the table. My 3 year old son loves it and he can not wait to do something from the chart to get a new point.

I love the chart! It encourages my daughter to do her chores, use her manners and be polite. I wish there were a couple more blank magnets to write in our own chores but it is a great chart.

The Magnetic Responsibility Chart has made SUCH a huge difference in our 5 year old son' behavior in just the short time we have had it. He is so proud to put his "buttons" up when he completes a responsibility for the day. It has made it much easier on all of us, because now he knows exactly what is expected of him, and we don't have to seem like we're constantly harping on him...he just reads the chart!

As with all Melissa and Doug products, this is of excellent quality. It is a flexible and fun way to help children organize their days. it enables them to take ownership of their tasks and give themselves little rewards for their successes.

The product is wonderful. Our 4 year old loved the happy faces and wanted to "earn" them. At first she just wanted to play with it as a toy, but eventually realized it's purpose.

I purchased the Magnetic Responsibility Chart hoping to use it as a motivational tool for my four year old son. I thought it would help with generally moving through the day (morning and bedtime rituals). It does not really work for our family yet. My son is not old enough to do most of the chores depicted. The pictures are not descriptive enough for him to figure out on his own. I think this would be great for a kid who is a little bit older (5 or 6). We are not quite ready for it. I plan to put it away for a year and pull it out later when he can better understand it.

While I have only used this chart for about a week now, I noticed immediate results in our 7 yr. old daughter. She really wants to see those magnets of praise up on the board for taking responsibility in her life. This is a wonderful product and I would recommend it to all parents who have behavior issues (or not) with their children.

This is a very well made product, as one would expect from Mellissa & Doug. It comes with all the magnets we need. I like the pre-made responsibilties, but it does include 2 or 3 blank ones if you have some special chores. The kids like updating it each night, but I haven't used it long enough to say whether or not it has really helped improve behaviors, etc. It's great for what it is.

I saw this product at my friend's home and said, "I have to have this." When I received it and hung it up, within 30 minutes, 2 neighboring mothers visited me and saw this hanging on my wall and said the same thing, "Where can I get this?" Within one day, I saw a clear improvement in my children's behavior.

This colorful and sturdy magnetic responsibility chart is eye-catching, and inspires kids to get their chores done while rewarding good behavior! It's also fun for children to pick out their smiley face for the task and place it in the correct slot for the week. I love all Melissa and Doug products, and was so glad they created something like this for my child to encourage responsibiity and good behavior.

Excellent quality product as usual from Melissa & Doug. Good choice of chores/responsibilities included and 2 blank pieces to add your own. My only suggestion would be to 'internationalise' the product a bit better by not using the term "awesome" as one of the reward pieces.

Very effective
Posted 4 days ago by Dinka Souzek

Rating: 

I bought this for my 6 and 3-year-old. I needed some visible way to help them listen and do what is required of them every day. This works great. The chart has a big selection of chores/behaviors as well as two clear tabs one if one wants to add more. I actually wouldn't mind if there were more of those.
I have consequences and awards for completed and not completed charts, but it seems at this point my kids are sufficiently motivated just by seeing all smiley faces in their spot.
The only thing i would've liked would be magnets that indicate uncompleted chores (maybe sad face?). For that purpose i just covered some smiley faces with tape and they serve now as "incomplete". For little kids it's more helpful to have that instead of leaving the space blank.

Great chart

Great product. The responsibilities pre-printed on the magnets are good ones and the blank ones have allowed us to add some of our own. We had been using a static sticker product, but the stickers became unsticky. The magnets work great and and it allows our 4 year old daughter to participate in the tracking of her responsibilities. She is enjoying it and so are we. Thanks!

This chart is several steps up from any responsibility chart I've ever seen before this. First, there are numerous "responsibilities" for families to choose from, and blank magnets are even included. We rotate them every couple of weeks, or once our children have started completing the responsibilities out of habit. Secondly, the responsibilities are presented in both words and pictures such that pre-readers can figure them out and complete the chart themselves without help. We use the actual chart for our 5-year-old, and in the "storage space" we put up three responsibilities for our 2-year-old, who puts magnets underneath each one as she completes it. Third, the design of the chart is easy for preschoolers to use and promotes a basic understanding of how graphs and charts work. Fourth, the chart and the magnets themselves are solidly constructed and will last much longer than we will probably even need them.

Loved It!

The responsibility chart has been wonderful! My 4 year old is so excited about it and wants to keep adding responsibilities to work on...she's started making her bed and doing other things independently and she enjoys the end of the day when we review her responsibilities and add magnets. My 2 year old has her own chart to "grow into" -she likes putting on magnets (monitored, of course) but doesn't really get what they mean yet.

The kids really like it. I hung it high so that they don't move their ratings. The only problem is that all the chores don't correlate to the age group that they are in. It would be helpful if more blank magnets were included.

Our kids were very excited when we received this chart and seem to understand the concept (ages 3 and 5). We have just started using the chart in the way it's intended so I don't know if it will be a good tool for our family or not. I wish more of the responsibilities were left blank for us to decide on jobs. I don't think two blanks are enough and some of the ready made responsibilities don't apply to our family.

love it!! my kids do thier chores better so they can keep track of what all they have done for the week. BUT, I would love to see a chart like this with days of the week(like it is) but I'd like to have all blank rectangles I have 3 kids ages 4-10 and it would be nice to have a blank chart to create age app. chores. we also live on a farm where chores are different and there is no (piano, trumpet, ect.. option). also if milissa and Doug made an empty chart I'd like to see it bigger and not another hanging thing off the bottom. But I do love this. wish I would have found this 5 yrs. ago.

A fun motivator
Posted 6/9/2008 by Heidi

Rating: 

I recently purchased this chart for our 5 year old son, and so far, he's loving it. The thrill of accomplishing his "responsibilities" and choosing a magnet for it has given him new motivation to cooperate in doing things done that, before, he'd need a lot of prodding to do. He's actually looking for ways to earn more! The chart also gives him a concrete picture of what he's able and expected to do without me having to hound him. I definitely recommend setting some specific "ground rules" ahead of time for what constitutes earning a magnet. For example, in order to earn a magnet for getting dressed, our son has to get completely dressed on his own (besides hard snaps or buttons) and get it done within a reasonable time period--we usually set a timer for about 10 minutes (without the time limit it'd take him a half hour and constant reminding!) This way it's very clear to him when he knows he'll get to choose a magnet.

I got this for my 5 year old daughter and she just loves it. We pick out the chores for the week and she gets to put a magnet next to the ones she completes each day. At the end of the week we add up the amount of magnets she has and she gets to pick a "prize" based on the amount of magnets she has. It has worked out great for us!

Love the chore chart. It is very sturdy, comes with premade magnetic chores that cover just about every chore imaginable. It also provides 2 blank chore magnets. I wish there were a couple more blank ones because there were a couple of chores that didn't apply to my kids, for example, filling and emptying the dishwasher. We don't have a dishwasher. Not only is it extremely functional, its very colorful and draws attention from people that come to visit. We love this product. I am considering buying another one because I have 2 boys and right now we are trying to put both of their chores on 1 chart.

The only change I would make in the product design is to have the option to detach the white marker board. Or, have that fold over to create a board to sit on the counter (triangle vs hanging). Terrific product! We have had it for less than a week. My 3 year old daughter is asking what chores she can do so she can get a "sticker". She volunteered to help me do dishes. And then asked if she could put sticker on board (This was not one of her chores. We underestimated her!) Great pictures. She understands the task without being able to read and the chores. It is something she can grow into. Thank you also for the "please and thank yous" "being kind" and "sharing". I wish I had one of these for work!

Such a fun product! The change in my son (6) is unbelievable! He wants to add chores every week in order to gain more tokens so special activities like mini golf, bowling...etc. can take place on the weekends. It also looks very pretty and since it's hanging in my kitchen it helps me to remember things I want him to do. Plus he can visually follow his success! Also there is no nagging, if he doesn't do his chores, the token for it can't be put up. (No discussing, it is as simple as that!) We love the chart!

There is a wide variety of chores on the magnets, and they are all pertinent and basic. Very pleased!

We purchased this product for our son to help him remember the things he needs to do on a daily basis as part of his family responsibilities. We put the chart in our kitchen so that every day he would remember to fill it out and most importantly take care of his daily chores. So far, we have been pleasantly surprised about the regularity in which he uses the Magnetic Responsibility Chart and in fact how he wants to add to it to improve his reward for doing his chores. I highly recommend this product for parents who want to instill more responsibility in their children.
