Allowance Tracker Template (Printable PDF & GoodNotes)

A kids' allowance tracker for up to five children. Each child has a row with five weekly columns and save, spend and give totals. Below, a savings goals table records what each child is saving for, how much it costs and how much they've saved so far.

What's on it

One page, ready to fill in.

  • A table with columns for name, week 1, week 2, week 3, week 4, week 5, save, spend and give
  • A savings goals table with columns for name, saving for, cost and saved so far
  • A “Month” line at the top, so it works for any month and year

Who it's for

Parents starting pocket money, families teaching save, spend and give, and parents with several children who want everyone's allowance on one fair page.

How to use it

Getting the most from a allowance tracker.

  1. Split each allowance three ways

    Save, spend and give is a simple way to teach money. Agree the split together, such as half to spend and a quarter each to save and give.

  2. Let them fill it in

    Children who write their own amounts learn far more than children who watch a parent do it. Even young kids can colour or tick.

  3. Make the savings goal concrete

    A toy, a game, a day out. Writing the cost and the amount saved so far turns saving into progress they can see.

  4. Link it to chores if you want

    Some families pay a base allowance and extra for chores. The family chore chart has a points column for that.

  5. Pay on the same day each week

    Consistency matters more than the amount. Pick a day, pay it, and write it in that week's column.

  6. Hold a five-minute money chat

    When you pay the allowance, look at the page together. Ask what they're saving for, how close they are and whether the give jar has a plan. Short, regular conversations teach more than one big lecture.
