More Appropriate Rewards For Your Child

Like any human being, we like to be rewarded for our hard work now and then. Rewards can be incentive for paying attention, keeping a quiet body while having a lesson, following directions, and practicing. Rewards aren’t always necessary but as a parent, you may decide that your child has earned a little extra attention, ice cream, stickers, or a pat on the back for doing a stellar job. Here are some ideas for appropriate rewards.

1) A hug
2) Verbal rewards such as saying, “I am so proud of you!”
3) A sticker or a few stickers
4) A sweet treat such as a cookie or piece of candy
5) Making their favorite food
6) Setting up a playdate with someone special
7) Visiting a new playground
8)Watching a special TV program

Well, you get the idea! Whatever the reward, make it happy and healthy for your family.
