Publisher's description
Parents, can you imagine your children cleaning their rooms, brushing their teeth, doing their homework, and saving their money, all without complaint? Wouldn't it feel good to spend more positive time with them instead of all the nagging, yelling, and pleading? That's where My Reward Board fits in. With reward coupons, fun animations and achievement certificates, this unique program turns chores and goals into fun and games. Before long your kids will be motivated to do their best everyday. Watch with pride as they grow in responsibility, goal setting skills, and money sense. My Reward Board is much more than a simple chore chart.
Version 1.61 may include unspecified updates, enhancements, or bug fixes.
Editor's review of My Reward Board Keep kids on task
Whee! Assigning tasks and setting goals enter the realm of fun with this creative application that will delight kids with its rich animation and bustling hands-on participation. My Reward Board is colorfully and whimsically designed with activities planted in icons throughout the screen.
In a password-protected environment, adults and kids can assign household or school chores from eight categories, or create their own. Kid-earned points can be traded for short and long-term payouts, like allowance and spending time with parents. Kids can earn bonus points for achieving personal goals, and can play with the program's many extra features.
One downside of the 15-day trial is the program's bloated use of system memory. At 16MB, it's not exactly a featherweight. However, if you have memory to spare, the program's appealing method for tracking assigned tasks, its game-like feel, and inventive reward system provide a fun chore-list alternative for elementary-age children and parents alike.
