How to Talk with Your Child

Before starting, talk with your children and explain what is expected of them.   Let them know that every time you see them displaying the character traits listed on the chart, you will update the chart.   

​Be sure you make an effort to observe your child demonstrating the character traits listed on the chart.   Praise your child as you mark their chart,  “Connor – I love how you listened when I asked you to pick up your toys” or “Sophie – I’m updating the chart because you had self-control and didn't have a tantrum.

It is important to sit down with your child at the end of the day to go over the chart.  Praise them for the things they did well and encourage them to improve in areas where they need help.   

Incentives

For some kids, the chart and praise will be enough of a motivator.  Others may need incentives, and we provide a list of simple ideas such as extra play time.

Discipline

Disciplining your child can be difficult, but it is an imperative part of parenting.  It teaches your child self-control, responsibility, accountability, and a value system they will use for life.  Discipline is a form of love.

​

We provide ideas to help your child practice and learn the correct behavior.  By using consequences and reinforcement effectively, you can raise your children into adults who exhibit traits such as gratefulness, respect, responsibility, integrity, work ethic, kindness, and the ability to get along with others.
