Free Printable Coupons for Kids (Makes a Great Gift!)
Printable kids coupons make an AMAZING gift or reward for kids.
They don’t add lots of junk food to the home, or low-quality plastic toys, and the kids get just as excited for them!
Instead, the coupon focuses on quality time together. The activities encourage bonding and allow you to get in family time when the rest of life gets crazy. Plus, it’s FREE!

As my kids pointed out recently, they can barely read my scribbled coupons.

When to Use a Printable Coupon for Kids
These printable kids coupons work beautifully as a birthday tradition in our home. And they are amazing tools for positive reinforcement.
But, there are SO many different ways to use these! Here are just a few:
Rewarding Good Behavior
Did your child do something that you are proud of? Perhaps he was nice to a friend. Or she stood up for what’s right. One of these coupons makes a great little “prize” when you need one.
Rewarding Good Grades (or Test Scores)
When your kiddo gets straight As (or Bs) or does well on a test because they worked their buns off, a coupon is a fun little treat.
Finishing Their Routine Checklists
In our home, the kids complete their routines every day to get their electronics on the weekends. But adding a coupon reward to this is another great idea.
The routine checklist is a built-in system that makes sure they are taking responsibility for themselves and helping around the house.

Outside of School Activities
I originally made the kids coupons because I was desperate to get my son more into basketball. At the time, he constantly avoided the ball and any kind of physical contact. So, we made a deal that if he touched the ball 5 times during a game he could choose a coupon.
We tweaked it (and made it harder) as time went on, but I was impressed by how well this worked.
Gifts for Holidays
We love them for:
- Birthdays

Creative Ways to Use the Coupons
A Kids Coupon Book
Now, if you want to make multiple coupons into one gift, then staple them together or use washi tape for a super cute kids coupon book!
Put Them Into a Jar
This is a great family idea for positive reinforcement. Kids can draw from the jar after such things as good grades, doing extra chores (try a chore list) without being asked, or being helpful with a sibling.
Put Them on a Key Ring
You can also hole punch each coupon and stick it on a book ring if you’d like for them to be together but separate. This idea works really well for holiday gifts.
Make Them Re-Usable
Now, every family will have their favorites, so if you have some you’d like to keep using, laminate them or print them on durable cardstock to make them last.
