Balanced Board: Empower Your Child with Choices

they’ll feel in control, while you know they're on track

Balancing daily activities and responsibilities was a significant challenge in our home. When Beckham’s diagnosis required me to rethink our approach, I realized that traditional schedules weren’t meeting our needs. I created the Balanced Board to help incorporate elements of choice and flexibility, enabling my children to understand the value of their actions and fostering a sense of ownership.

I was tired of constant power struggles. → The board offered choices, empowering my kids while keeping them on track.

My child hated being told what to do. → They make their own choices, and we avoid the constant “no” battles.

My kids were becoming defiant. → The board encourages them to make responsible decisions, fostering independence without me having to micromanage.

I felt guilty when they used screens. → Now, I know that when they enjoy screen time, it’s because they've made balanced choices throughout the day.

I felt like I was always the bad guy. → The board shifts the focus to their choices, teaching them responsibility without me being the enforcer.

Our son couldn’t read yet. → I made these boards with images to help him understand and follow along.

How It Works

1. Grab Your balanced board

Select either the acrylic or whiteboard version, depending on your preference and whether you have kids prone to breaking items. Choose a prominent location for your board to “live.” Our magnetic boards are easy to hang on the fridge or dishwasher.

2. set up tasks

Decide which activities you’re willing to include for the day and add them to the board. Your child then selects their tasks from these options.

3. track progress  

Move completed tasks to the “DONE” section as they are finished. This clear visual helps everyone stay on track and see their progress.

Our board includes:

- Day: Finish essential tasks like reading and homework.

- Body: Choose 1 activity for 30 minutes.

- Mind: Select 2 activities, each for 30 minutes (e.g., more tasks in summer vs. school time).

- Home: Complete 1 age-appropriate chore, which changes with the seasons.

The visual illustrations make it easy for younger children to understand their choices.

4. enjoy the benefits 

No screen time until all tasks are moved to the “DONE” section. Watch your child’s day become balanced, helping them develop responsibility and independence while you enjoy a smoother, more organized day.
