Children learn from our attitudes, actions and reactions. The way we communicate with, and around, children has a great impact. However, the pressure of modern day life can make it difficult to remember to act positively - our attention can often be elsewhere, our voices raised and we can be quick to focus on the negative.
Our carefully created Encourage & Praise™ reward system provides a reference point to help families address this issue. They act as a positive reminder to work together to achieve goals.
Hanging our charts in an easy to view place and combining the excitement of receiving a sticker with verbal praise creates a powerful tool for a parent/carer to recognize and acknowledge a child’s achievements. Building our charts into daily routines can help families to create a positive environment.
Using our Encourage & Praise™ charts will:
• set goals to encourage both adult and child to work together;
• provide a visual tool from which families can see progress and feel good about achievement;
• and, act as a reminder and a focal point for all to work from.
As a result our Encourage & Praise™ reward system will enable children to:
• see how well they are doing;
• feel good about their progress;
• build great self-esteem;
• and, repeat their positive actions.
Positive adult involvement is key to the success of our charts. Helping children to feel good about themselves can ease a parents/carers frustration and bring both adult and
child closer together. All of which makes for a happy home.
