Absolutely! Visual incentive charts work incredibly well with our three kids aged 4, 7 and 9, especially as they are very different characters. Our oldest is incredibly goal orientated so a visual representation really helps her to focus and plan. The middle one responds well to a tangible goal - if he can see the end prize, it keeps him very motivated. Our youngest loves the excitement of putting a sticker on his chart! It's also a great way for them to learn about delayed gratification, which is such an important skill to master. We've found that it encourages healthy competition between our three kids too and empowers them to be more involved with household decision-making - they love being given some control and having their opinions matter.
