Jennakate - Mint Dry Erase Menu Fridge Magnet - Ideal for Diet Plan Shopping List & Health and Diabetic Meal Planning- Family Command Center- 11"x 14"- Two Pack Dry Erase Liquid Chalk Markers

This is an amazing little chore chart!The only thing I would add or change is to make the markers (lid) magnetic! Why in the world it isn’t is beyond me.The lid has a little hook thing on it so you can essentially hang it on the chart, but then you have to peel the chart up off the refrigerator to hook it on (?!)I imagine doing this, over time, may wear out the spot on the front of the chart where you hook it.

Has been excellent to help organize chores for the kids this summer!

We had been looking for a good way to track chores in our house for a while when we came upon this one. It is a very clear way for our children to see what the chores are, which ones have been accomplished, and how many "points" they've accumulated. As you can see in the picture, we modified it a bit so instead of having "Weekly" chores, we put the dates of the weeks that we were tracking. Our chores are more daily than anything, so it made more sense to put the weeks in with their totals so that at the end of the month (or whenever 4 weeks are up) we can calculate. I also like that there is a place to write the "Reward." We are also able to decide how many points we want the kids to have in order to get said reward.The only complaint I have, which is why I gave it 4 stars out of 5, is that the chalk markers that came with it don't work very well. The first time we used them they were great--vibrant and not runny, but every time after that they would run and drip into other boxes and were pretty dull. So, we ended up just getting regular Expo dry erase markers, which work just as well, they just aren't as exciting.I would ultimately recommend this product, however, because it is so hard to help kids keep track of their responsibilities as they get older and we are happy to have found a system that works so far.

I loved everything about it!! Its cute, simple and come well packed in a hard flat envelopes so when you put it up it sticks great no curves to try flatting like the ones that are shipped rolled up. The only thing (which is a plus in others less nice Mat/board) is the pen is not a magnetic pen so you cannot stick by the mat/board and it dies not come with something to erase. This does come with 2 pens blue and orange (In my case) I am not fan of the orange and their lid is not magnetic nor has any eraser but a cloth or papers works fine so that do not make this item any less great would just be a commodity to have everything by it and not on a drawer or on top of the fridge so even though I have to set the pen somewhere else and find something to use to erase things (which is not going to be much, just the date once a week) this mat still the best!!

Hi. I recently received my order on 9/2/19 (ok, 11 days ago). I just opened it this morning (9/13). The mint green chore chart surface has scratches. They are not deep scratches but they are noticeable when we run our fingers over them. You can visually see the scratches, too. I wonder if those scratches will eventually collect color from the liquid chalk and start to look messy. For the price, I would prefer a replacement if this is going to happen. We intend on using them for a long time. The menu we purchased is very smooth with no scratches, but sustained some indentations during shipping. This, however, does not bother me. The grey chore chart is also smooth (no scratches) with only a slightly bent corner that probably happened during shipping. Let's remedy the mint green chore chart. Thank you.

I was hesitant on spending 20.00 when there are a dozen of free online chore charts, but I decided it was worth the try with it being magnetic, multiple kids, and dry-erase. I would have rated it 5 stars, but I'm sad to say when mine arrived, it was bent at the corner. So when I place it on our chalkboard, a corner sticks out. Not the end of the world clearly, but I know this will shorten how long it lasts with it already coming off the board slightly. Also, I agree with another review on the brightness of the markers--the neon orange is just way too bright and hard on the eyes. Overall, it's a great board and my girls seem extra motivated with the built in point system.

Super helpful and my 8 year old loves it! Photo is from when I first got it. You’ll notice the bottom right corner is curled, which is how it came in spite of the packaging designed to avoid bending. It did flatten out over time! I eventually ended up going with a 35 point goal, with more chores and a math homework program in his weekly section. He only gets points if I do not have to remind him to do specific items. Each day I send him to check his chart in the morning and evening. He is very motivated by the weekly reward, which is sometimes a “movie rental” (most times it worked out the movie he wanted was available on our streaming), or choosing a favorite dinner or dessert for the week.

I had to adjust a few things to work for is but no premade chore chart would have worked for me without adjustments if I'm being honest. This one was a fantastic place for me to start. My children are just beginning to do chores and I was going crazy trying to make my own chart by hand. This was week one and my house is clean. Everyone chipped in. It was nice to see my son check the chore list right after school and hop right to it.

Item exactly as described, came earlier then estimated date, great quality, and kids see their chores and its actually getting done without harping! 10/10!!

My kids use this chart every day for chores. It’s easy to use and I love that it just sticks to the fridge. The markers are easy to use and wipe off at the end of the week.
