I got all my stars this week!
Sophie’s got a reward chart system going for the past 2 months.
We find that it really helps to encourage good behavior and for her to take some responsibility e.g. brushing her teeth, cleaning up her room before bedtime.
She gets stars if she does the following things: -
1. Eat meals well on her own
2. Brush her teeth 2 x a day on her own
3. Pick up her toys before bedtime
4. Be polite
5. Obey mum and dad
6. Go to the toilet on her own
It started off a bit difficult but she’s now in the good habit of doing most of the things without much negotiation! That also means less going on the time out chair! Yippee! She normally falters on the "O-B-E-Y" and eating meals well on her own but who doesn’t! But we always remind her that she can try again tomorrow and she’ll really make it a point to try, which is great. 
We reward her with big gifts and small gifts. It went from a tea set to renting a DVD from the DVD shop in town (she loves that!) to a trip to the playground, to a trip with mummy and daddy to have babycino etc…
A week ago, she got all the stars for everyday for the entire week and we decided to commemorate it by taking a picture! She’s so happy! She got a trip to the playground in town.
