Token Boards & Reward Charts

A token board answers the question behind a lot of resistance: how much longer?

Instead of "just a few more," your child can see exactly how many are left and watch the gap close. Effort becomes visible, and the ending becomes countable.

What's inside

• Three ready-to-use token boards — three, five, and ten tokens, so you can start small and build up
• 12 cut-out tokens
• A reward menu your child picks from, plus blanks for their own ideas
• A weekly reward chart for older kids and goals that take more than one day
• Five rules that make token boards actually work

The rule most people get wrong

Never take a token back. Removing tokens turns the board into a punishment and it stops working immediately. Tokens earned are earned.

Start smaller than you think

Three tokens, not ten. The first board should be almost easy — a child needs to experience the system working before it can motivate anything.
