Free printable Schedules & Checklists for Kids Stuck at Home

Click HERE for Free Printable PDFs of the Schedule & Checklist in color and black & white  Due to forced shelter at home or a recent surgery or illness,  kids can be stuck at home for various reasons.   To help make it easier for parents trying to work and keep their homes running smoothly, I decided to create and share schedules and checklists for elementary school children.   The bright rainbow colors and self ownership of checking off when they complete a task has helped keep morale up so far.  Use stickers or glitter to keep it fun! I hope these ideas will help you as we all navigate sheltering at home.   Good luck and send me a Tweet @4chances2parent if you have suggestions or ideas to share or even if worked for your family. Be well and Be kind to each other!
