I was first introduced to @KiddyCharts on twitter and followed Helen for her conversation rather than her product.
I have tried Reward Charts before but never really stuck with them, but decided to try again after Isaac got himself stuck into a routine of getting up at 5am EVERY morning. It was killing me!
I decided to look into making my own Reward Chart, when I remembered KiddyCharts!
- Reward / Behaviour
- Track based rewards
- Care Charts
Lastly, you can choose to print yourself, or to have the chart printed and posted to you. I chose to print myself as I am lucky enough to own a laminator at home.
I chose to just have “Staying in Bed” for Isaac and have his chart stuck above his bed, so he can see his own progress.
To key to a Reward Chart is consistency, and the first couple of days there was no change in his behaviour at all. It was only once he realised that there would be no Skylander if he carried on, that he began to stay in bed longer.
We have teamed his Kiddy Chart with his Gro Clock so it is easy to track his progress (his target get up time is 7am) and he was chuffed to bits on Saturday when he finally earned his first Skylander!
KiddyCharts start from just £2.99 for a single chart, but there are discounts for more than one! For more information, you can find KiddyCharts on Facebook and follow them @KiddyCharts on twitter.
