KIDDO STUFF

All things parenting, little guy's fashion, lunch ideas, and lots of fun pics! Basically all things that I'm interested in for my kiddo!

This was my latest pinterest inspiration. A "reward board"! This encourages good behavior through positive rather than negative. I made one for Westyn. He gets to pick his reward and we set together the amount of "good jobs" it takes to earn it. I love that it teaches him you don't just ask and receive all the time. Sometime you need to work for things.

 

Here is our reward board:

 

12/19/2017 update: We've been doing this for 2 years now! He loves it and a great way for him to earn his toy.  I like that it rewards helpful behavior as well as the idea that you have to work to get something. Toys are like money, they don't grow in trees. He can put anything on the board as a reward and we decide together how many check marks in order to earn the reward.

 

We had a visit from our friend

shannell the other morning. Its become tradition for us to have Smores for breakfast with her! A smile inducing once every couple years treat!
