How to Use This Printable
- List each child's name for the week.
- Check off chores completed as the week goes.
- Fill in the allowance earned based on your own house rules.
- Pay out and start a fresh sheet the following week.
Setting a consistent rate
Deciding a per-chore or per-week rate before the first sheet is filled in makes the Allowance Earned column quick to calculate and keeps payouts consistent from week to week.
Making progress visible to kids
Posting the sheet somewhere a child can see it turns allowance into something they can track themselves, not just something that shows up. Checking off chores as they're finished, rather than all at once at week's end, keeps it honest.
Connecting allowance to saving
Once a child is regularly earning allowance, pairing this tracker with the Kids Savings Tracker or Savings Goal Tracker gives their earnings a destination beyond spending it immediately.
Ideas for Using This Printable
- Post it somewhere the kids can see their own progress.
- Use a consistent rate per chore so the Allowance Earned column is easy to calculate.
- Pair with the Savings Goal Tracker if a child is saving allowance toward something specific.

FAQ
- How many kids fit on one sheet?
- The rows are per-entry, so use as many rows per child as you need across the week; print one sheet per child if that's easier to manage.
- Does this include a chore list?
- No, it's a blank log so you can use whatever chores and rates fit your own household.
- Should older kids get a different rate than younger ones?
- That's a household decision. Some families scale the rate by age or chore difficulty; the sheet works the same either way.
- What if a chore isn't finished properly?
- That's a house-rules call. Some families still pay and address it separately, others withhold that portion; note the outcome in the Chores Completed column either way.
- Can this work for more than one child on the same sheet?
- Yes, use a new row per child per week, or print a separate sheet per child if you'd rather keep totals fully separate.
