Assign the work
Create a task, connect it to the right child, and make the expectation visible.
CHORES & REWARDS
Turn household responsibilities into routines children can follow
FolkPlan lets families assign tasks to children, connect each task to points, track completion, and define custom rewards that earned points can unlock. Recurring reminders help turn one-off instructions into visible routines.
Recognize progress
Attach points to tasks and track completion without separating rewards from the plan.
Define meaningful rewards
Create household-specific rewards instead of relying on a fixed catalog.

FEATURE DETAILS
Explore FolkPlan features
Tasks belong inside the family plan
A task can sit alongside school, appointments, meals, and other family events. This makes responsibilities part of the same daily view rather than a separate list that is easy to miss.
- Short- and long-term to-dos
- Assignments connected to household participants
- Completion tracking in the shared plan
Points make progress visible
Parents can link tasks to points. Children can see the work connected to those points, while the family can follow what has been completed.
- Points set for individual tasks
- Progress connected to task completion
- Rewards redeemed from earned points
Recurring reminders support routines
Use recurring reminders for responsibilities that repeat, such as school preparation, medication, appointments, or everyday household routines. The goal is clarity and consistency, not an invented promise of automatic behavior change.
