Whether it is the end of the first quarter, semester or school year, I thought this would be a good time to share the current list of Good Report Card Freebies for kids who bring home good grades on their report cards! This way you can use them as incentives to motivate your kids to finish the year off strong! Thanks to Saving Dollars and Sense for starting this list.
Good Report Card Freebies
- Chuck E. Cheese – Chuck E. Cheese believes in the value of a good education. Choose from the Super Student Award or Graduation Certificate and receive FREE tokens for being a good student.
- Krispy Kreme – Get a free original glazed donut for each A (up to 6 A’s).
- Chick-fil-A – Bring in your all A’s and B’s report card and receive a FREE 8 pack nuggets! Call ahead to your location to see if they are participating
- Pizza Hut – Each marking period, any child who has 3 A’s or the equivalent thereof, will receive one Personal Pan Pizza and a small soft drink or carton of milk by presenting his or her report card to the manager. This offer is good for Elementary and Middle School students. Dine-in only. The student must be present and the original report card must be presented. Available at participating locations.
- McDonald’s – If your child has a straight “A” report card, he/she can receive a FREE Happy Meal. This may vary by location so call ahead first!
- Taco Johns – For every “A” your child will get a crunchy taco.
- Family Video – Throughout the month of June, Family Video gives a FREE overnight movie or game rental to
students for every ‘A’ they receive on their final report card in any core subjects designed to ensure that we are an active, participating member of the community in which our store is located. - Cheryl’s Cookies – Get up to 3 FREE Cookies for A’s.
- Cold Stone Creamery – Not on a national level, but the stores are individual owned & operated so the best thing to do would be to ask your local store as some have offered them in the past.
- Bank Rewards – A reader sent in the tip to check with your local banks and credit unions as many of them offer money rewards for good grades as well.
- Applebee’s – Designed for grade school students, this reward card for teachers is available to motivate positive behavior (you set the criteria), and is yours for the asking!
- Wendy’s – A report card with A’s and B’s earns a treat. Show the cashier your report card before ordering.
- Kudzoo App – Middle school and college students can download the FREE Kudzoo app and build Kudzoo cash to use in your favorite places, from restaurants to concerts. Earn the grades, scan the report cards then spend your Kudzoo cash! There is also a daily challenge round and coupons to help college students boost their savings!

Although all companies were contacted to verify their participation again this year, I always suggest calling ahead to be sure that your area business is participating. The last thing you want is a disappointed child with a good report card right?
If you know of any other companies rewarding children for good report cards please comment below and I’ll add it to the list! Thanks!
valmg @ Mom Knows It All says
I am not huge on rewards or performance, I prefer those for effort. It’s great that Wendy’s and ChickFilA don’t require an A for a reward.
Marissa says
Effort is always important.
Wendy says
Awesome List! I just shared this on Facebook for all my friends to use for their kids. I’ve always believed in hard work deserving a reward. Back when I was young you could turn in your good grades for a free VHS video from Blockbuster or ice cream from Friendly’s. Showing my age I suppose. =)
Marissa says
Hi Wendy!
Thank you for sharing this! I appreciate it. I to remember the days of a free VHS from Blockbuster!
Amanda Love says
Those are all great choices. My son is way older and might want and prefer a little something named cash. 🙂
Marissa says
Amanda-
Mine are still small enough that they get excited at going out to eat and they get something free! Haven’t really mastered the value in CASH yet. Whew!
Sarah Bailey says
Oh wow this is so cool of the companies to be doing this for kids! It is good that they don’t all want all A’s as sometimes that can be hard.
Marissa says
I agree! It could be a struggle to get all A’s so the reward for B’s is a great thing!
William Sweeney says
I didn’t realize companies did this for good report cards!! What a great list of freebies to rewards the kids with.
Marissa says
Hi William!
I am working on expanding this list, there are so many people who don’t realize companies do this. I used to be one!
Nancy L says
What a great way to show children the importance of good grades and it’s a nice perk/reward for all of their hard work. Perhaps it is rewards like this that will be the difference between a B or A. Perhaps?
Marissa says
Nancy-
I agree. I know my kids are very competitive so if big brother gets all A’s it like war for the others to get all A’s! You know one child can’t get all the fun, HA!
Brandy says
These are really cool ideas to reward for good report cards, I never really did a reward for report cards as my trio has always done pretty well but maybe as my oldest is slipping a bit I can find a reward system
Maggie Branch says
Thank you for sharing all of these awesome good report card rewards! I always enjoyed being prasied for my hard work at places other than home.
Rebecca Swenor says
This is a great list of good report card freebies. It gives the kids incentive and it makes for a great day as well. I will have to pass this along to my sister and my nieces. Thanks for sharing the list.

Visiting your country soon and I already made a list of places I want to visit. Lol Wendys is on top of that list. Heard so much about it.
rika says
Thanks for sharing the list! Sounds pretty useful and a great way to reward our kids
christina aliperti says
This is really cool! I love that they reward kids for doing well, but not everyone gets all A’s so there should be some reward for effort as well.
Peachy @ The Peach Kitchen says
Thanks for sharing this list of freebies! I hope we have freebies like these here in the Philippines too!
