Homework Help
Getting homework done around here can sometimes be a chore. Sometimes there are tears. Sometimes said tears are not from the kids. 😉 Sometimes it can get frustrating. And sometimes, we all just need a little motivation!
I designed these punch card bookmarks and so far, my kids LOVE them!! They can’t wait to get their homework done and get a punch on their bookmark, which gets them closer to their reward!
Speaking of rewards…
I let each of my kids pick their own reward and they can change it up with each bookmark! Here are some ideas of rewards you can use –
- 30 minutes later bedtime
- trip to the ice cream store
- get out of doing dinner dishes
- date night with mom + dad
- movie night at home with friends
- get out of Saturday morning chores
You can come up with incentives that are age-appropriate and you can go as simple or elaborate as you want!

Thank you!
That is annoying – sorry about that! The next time you get an email with a comment, there should be a place right in that email that will let you unsubscribe. Hope that helps! 🙂 xoxo, Stephanie
These punch cards are so cute and my kids love using them. Thanks!
I’m so glad they help!
These look so awesome!!
I’m considering using these for the co-op class I teach as encouragement for the kids to have their work done one time. (When middle school homeschoolers only meet once a week, it’s easy to forget something. Especially as this is often the first time the kids become totally responsible for having their work done on time.) And those books look great!
Super Adorable! I think they would be great for me to use for myself too! Really cute design; very inviting for kids to use!
Love this concept! Would be a special project for my older child and Zi to work on.
Oh what a fun and clever way to start middle school off right! Heck, I bet, somehow, my high school kids could benefit. Thank you for doing the leg work. Heaven knows, education seems to get harder every year. Mix that with hormones and peer pressure and YIKES!
Love love the bookmark idea! My daughter would love the books as well…thank you so much for sharing!
My boys will love the books! Thanks for sharing! And I’m going to try the bookmark punch cards too! We have tickets to earn tech time but these would be great for earning bigger treats & rewards!
I think these would be so beneficial for both myself and my daughter. It would make learning much more exciting for her which lately has been somewhat difficult.
Love the punch cards. Both my daughter and son (1 year apart) would use these and love those vibrant colors!
My son could use this. He was diagnosed with mild autism and it takes a little longer to grasp some concepts.
This would be great for my son!!!
These bookmarks look amazing Sarah!!! You’re so cute. 🙂 Tell you what. And those books?!?! Oh my goodness, they look like so much fun and my boys would eat them up. 🙂
I love the idea of these punch cards. My son has ADHD and homework is a nightmare to put it mildly. Something like this may be a good incentive to get him to focus on what needs to be done. As for the book series- they look fabulous! Thanks for the chance!
Thank you for introducing me to these books! They look like something that my boys will enjoy! I’m excited to read them, too!
These would be great to challenge my son. He’s not in middle school yet but he’s advanced in math and language arts and LOVE reading. It’s just a little more difficult for me to convince him to read the educational things he’s given.
