Frequently asked questions

What should be on a morning routine chart for kids?

Keep it to the steps your child actually needs before leaving the house: get dressed, eat breakfast, brush teeth, brush hair, pack the backpack and put on shoes. Five or six steps is plenty.

At what age does a morning routine chart help?

Routine charts work best from about age 3 to 8. Picture steps let pre-readers follow along, and older kids like checking off each step on their own.

Can my child use the chart without reading?

Yes. Every step has a picture icon, so children who cannot read yet can follow the chart from the pictures alone. Turn on large text to make it easier to see.

Where should I hang a morning routine chart?

Put it where the routine happens, at your child's eye level: on their bedroom door, by the bathroom sink or next to the front door where shoes and backpacks go.

Can I make a bedtime routine chart as well?

Yes. Keep the Routine chart type and swap the steps for evening ones like bath, pajamas, brushing teeth and reading a book, then print it as a second chart.
