Chore and Reward Systems with Toddlers
Chore and reward systems can work with children as young as two! True they won?t be very efficient at vacuuming but there are ways they can help make the days go smoother.
I used a system with my daughter that models the above. Using a piece of construction paper I made twenty 1×1 inch squares. At the bottom I made one large square and put a picture of an Elmo helium balloon. Each time she cleaned up her toys, was a good listener for the day, got dressed without a fight, went to sleep without a fight or went to the bathroom ?on the potty,? I let her choose a sticker to place on a square. (The stickers were all her favorite characters and animals, dinosaurs, Barney, butterflies, etc.)
When the sheet was full, we made a special adventure out of purchasing her balloon. We went to the store and bought only the balloon, taking great care to pick one out.
