Free Printable Disneyland Vacation Star Chart
Earn your way to your next Disneyland Family Vacation with this fun Disneyland Vacation Star Chart.
It is a simple truth that you value more what you work for. I guess the reason why is that having worked for something we gain a better understanding of its actual value. Lately, I have been thinking of how to apply this principle to Family Vacations to Disneyland so the children can value the gift of a Disneyland Vacation more.
How can children "Work" toward their Disneyland Vacation? The first thought I had was having the kids help pay for the vacation. Yet, the more I thought about this idea the more I realized that since Disneyland vacations are not cheap which means our kids would never realistically earn enough money to cover their tickets, travel, and housing for a vacation (especially little kids.) Oh, I am sure they can put in some small change here and there to feel like they are contributing, but does this really help them gain a full appreciation of a Disneyland vacation (when you are paying the rest of the $$$$$)..The answer I came to was...Maybe.
SO I thought some more about how else our children could work toward their Disneyland vacation to better appreciate it. That's when it came to me. A STAR CHART! I know I am brilliant sometimes. Let me explain. What is a Star Chart? It is a printable chart where you write a GOAL and a Reward then as you work toward your goal you mark off squares with star stickers.
Children LOVE star charts. I love to see how much they have accomplished (how close they are to reaching their goal.) Even more, they love putting those star Stickers on the charts. **You can get 25 sheets of Star stickers perfect for these charts for #3.99 at Oriental Trading.
I designed 2 versions of the Star Chart for you to use with your family. 1 chart is broken up into 8 weeks. On this chart, you mark off each day leading up to earning your vacation. This is great for those daily goals like reading 30 minutes a day as a family.
The second chart has 72 squares which you mark off when you finish each goal. like if your goal was to read 7200 pages in books as a family and you mark off a square every time you finish 100 pages.
These printables pages are formatted as a PDF file that is ready to print at home or at a local copy center.
