DIY reward chart


I've been thinking about making a reward chart for you for a while now. The idea came to me when we were thinking of ways in how you can potty train in a positive way. I thought a chart that you can fill up with stickers would be something that you would enjoy filling and it would encourage you to act positively. It's especially important now since you are at a terrible 2 stage. I bought a few things at the dollar store yesterday and got working on it today.

I bought several sheets of foam in different colours. I then punched 1" punches in a contrasting colour and stuck
it on the foam sheet. Each round punch is for a sticker. This one is for the potty reward chart.

I bought these sheets of foam letters at the dollar store that I used to label each reward chart.

I bought a box of stickers that you would enjoy- things with cars, airplanes and happy faces that I'm going to be
using as the stickers for the reward charts.

Here's one I made for sleep. I basically made reward charts for things you have a hard time doing. One being
sleeping. I thought creating a chart for you to go to bed without throwing a fit would be something good for you
to have. 

I stuck the chart in your room by your bed. Before bedtime I ask you, "Aidan, do you want a sleep sticker?" You
always say yes. I then explain to you that you can only get it if you go to bed after you stick the sticker on the
chart. And it works like a charm!

I made a potty chart for the washroom. This one is right by your potty.

I'm hoping this will encourage you to go potty so that you can get a reward sticker.

Lastly I made one for your play room. This one is for tidying up. You can see here that you already
got a sticker for doing that.

The chart is hanging right by your kitchen set. It really helps to keep things orderly in your play room.
