How to use it
- Print this page, or tick items on screen.
- Over two weeks, tick an item only when you actually see it, and write down the date and where it happened.
- Note what was going on at the time: tired, hungry, a change in routine, a new place.
- Ask your child's teacher whether they see the same things.
- Take your notes to your pediatrician if a pattern worries you.
There is no score. Every child shows many of these sometimes. What a doctor looks for is a steady pattern, in more than one place, that gets in the way of daily life.
What next?
If a pattern stands out, read is my child ADHD or just active? and when to see a child psychologist. A game-based observation such as Mores adds examples of how your child approaches challenges in play.
Common questions
- Is there a free child behaviour checklist for parents?
- Yes. This checklist is free and printable. It helps you record what you see over two weeks. It has no score and does not diagnose anything.
- How many ticks mean my child has a problem?
- None. Every child shows many of these sometimes. The checklist is for collecting examples, not for scoring.
- Should I share the checklist with my child's teacher?
- Yes. Teachers see your child in a different setting, and comparing notes is one of the most useful things you can do.
