Reward System for a Pre-Schooler?

Filed Under (Raising the Child) by Footyman on 14-06-2008

My wife & I brought our son out today.

Nothing special you might say. Well, true except it was a trip to buy him a toy for completing the first row of "stars" in our inaugural REWARD SYSTEM .

Reward Chart Bet you would already know, for every good behavior/action he does, he gets a star. And my wife has drawn up a chart filled with a few columns of boxes. Each box can fill a sticker star. When he completes one row, he gets to buy a toy of his desire (within reasonable financial means of course)

How are you doing it? -Do you have a system to reward your child? -How do you determine "good behaviors"? -Is there a list of "good behavior" previously agreed with the child? -How do you reward the child? - Or do you even believe in a reward system?

I just read an interesting suggestion from a mother who uses the "Treasure Chest " method for reward.

She basically uses the "sight" of the treasure chest as a motivation for the child, since the every time the child is rewarded, he gets to pick an item within the Treasure Chest.

Interesting….
