Hi everyone,
I’m trying to create a morning routine chart for my kid that is both easy to follow and engaging. I’m looking for suggestions on what to include, how to layout the steps, and any design ideas that have worked for you.
Any tips or examples would be much appreciated. Thanks!
I built a routine chart with just a few key tasks and clear visuals. I arranged steps in a row so the flow stayed obvious and easy to follow. Keeping it short helped my kid zero in on what needed doing, and it meant fewer back-and-forth reminders every morning.
I tried making a simple chart with pictures and words since my child picks up on visuals better. I started with one or two tasks like brushing teeth and getting dressed. What small steps did you include in yours? I’m still experimenting.
I put together a routine chart that our kids help design. We use simple pictures that match each step of the morning, like an image for the toothbrush and another for the breakfast table. I let them pick out the stickers and sometimes they even draw little icons for tasks they enjoy. That way, it feels like something they created and want to follow each morning. It really works to get them excited to start the day and makes the routine feel like a mini project rather than a list of chores. They’ve taken pride in checking off each step and it brings a bit of fun to our busy mornings 
I had some fun putting together a morning routine chart by involving my child in the design. We chose our own symbols and even looked at a few colors together. I arranged the tasks in order, placing breakfast and getting dressed at the end so it wasn’t too overwhelming. Even small details like having their favorite book as a reward when finishing the routine helped. I’m still exploring different tweaks each week to see what sits best with our morning pace.
Hey there, I found that starting small can really help. I began by listing a couple of key actions – a bit like our usual routine, but much simpler for each day. I tried using bright markers and even printed out some fun icons from old magazines. My kid loved checking each task off as we went, and it seemed to make mornings a little less nerve-wracking. Over time, I adjusted the list to fit what worked that day. For instance, sometimes I’d add a signal like a little bell when it was time to switch tasks. I noticed that when my kid felt part of the process, they were more engaged. It’s okay to experiment with different ideas until you see a few that stick. In our household, a bit of creativity in setting the pace goes a long way .
