Corrina Rawlinson describes converting a chore chart into a gamified habit tracker for her children, built using Canva and ChatGPT. She added game elements—a contract, XP points, and weekly titles (e.g., "kitchen king", "laundry legend")—and reports that the kids are highly motivated and consistently completing tasks, even when the parent is away.

She shared the other day on her Instagram. She's like, I've created a habit tracker for my kids. And since I've changed it from being a chore chart to a habit tracker, the kids are frothing. They're absolutely loving it. And I was like, okay, cool, let me gamify this for my kids. And so I jumped on Canva and a little chat GPT and I gamified this habit tracker for my kids, and I had to sign a little contract and they earn xp. So if your kids are gamers, you know what it is? I don't even understand some of the things that I put in this little contract for them, but they're frothing over it. And this week I'm away and my husband's at home with them, and he's like, they're actually doing it. Someone is the kitchen king for the week, and the other one's a laundry legend for the week, and they're owning those spaces. So it was like, this is what actually works for their brains.
