Stars For Toys

A few weeks ago, Meimei started a new stars reward scheme to promote good behaviour and teach 萱萱 and 阳阳 the value of money at the same time. The stars can be exchanged for a variety of toys, stationery and trinkets from a 'Mama shop' booth above the star chart.

Some of the key behaviours we are encouraging:
  • No videos during meals
  • Potty everyday
  • Keep toys after play
  • No peeing in pampers at night
  • Sleep early at night
I would say it's been a success. The kids are behaving better in anticipation of the nightly stars reward. Also they have been able to 'buy' toys from the shop and that keeps them motivated. 萱萱 has been very prudent with her stars as she has her eyes set on a watch which cost 50 stars. It's good they are learning to save their stars and evaluating which items are more worthwhile for exchange and which are probably over-priced.
