30-day practice chart
A free 30-day music practice chart to print: thirty boxes to color in, one for each day of practice, with a line for the reward at the end.
Thirty days is long enough to build a habit and short enough for a child to see the end. The child colors one box for each day of practice. The boxes do not have dates, so a missed day does not leave a hole in the chart.
How to use it
Agree on what counts as a day of practice before you start. Write the number of minutes on the line at the top. For a five-year-old, five to ten minutes is a real practice. Hang the chart where the instrument lives.
Choose the reward together and write it at the bottom. Small rewards work: picking the family movie, a trip to the music store, or a new sticker for the instrument case. Let the child color the box right after practice.
Only the sheet below prints. It fits letter and A4 paper. For a clean page, turn off headers and footers in the print window.
