How To: Know your Toddler is ready for a rewards chart

1. Give Toddler dinner
2. They take a few bites, but refuse to eat anymore
3. Try getting them to sit down
4. They play with their toys and then run off
5. When the Toddler runs away call out "If you eat your dinner, I will give you a sticker!"
6. Toddler stops midway down the hall and turns in surprise "Sticker?!"
7. Answer "Yes, but you have to eat all your potatoes"
8. Toddler is very excited and runs back to the table and eats his potatoes and more of his peas
9. Ask Toddler if they are finished
10. Toddler stands up and says "Yay!"
11. Smile and clean up the dinner dishes from Toddlers table
12. Collect sticker sheet and give Toddler a sticker
13. Spend the rest of the night thinking up designs and what to put on Toddler's sticker chart
14. Decide on: Eating their food (includes Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner), Going to the Toilet (with 2 stickers if they go poos in the toilet!) and Picking up their Toys (will add more if these three work)
