Reward Chart

Last night, whilst having a little chat with Karen, I asked for her opinion on 'rewarding' Renee to encourage her to drink more water. She reminded me on the use of a chart - something which I've read about but looong forgotten!!! Thanks for the reminder, Karen :D

So today, after sending Renee to school, I quickly went over to the Popular @ Hougang Mall to get some coloured cards and star stickers(took a longer time searching for the files which daddy wanted me to get though :<). Co-incidentally, the star stickers which comes in 5 sheets of different colours are of the same/similar colour of the coloured cards! Got home with packed lunch from Long John Silver for both me and daddy(as he wanted to use my car today) and I quickly did up one chart for her so she can start her immediate star collection after school.
She was very excited about it initially but when I re-filled up the tumbler, she got upset('cos that means she'd have to 'do it' all over again hahaha) but was more receptive after I've explained the 'rules' to her again. Let's hope this will really help her to get into the habit of drinking at least 3 tumblers full of water :)
I've also bought 2 more story books for Renee. 1 is about eating rice and the other, which had first caught my eye('cos the girl illustrated in the book kinda resembles Renee, daddy agreed too hahaha) is about teddy bear. I'll have to wrap them up first like the rest of her books, before passing them to her.
And yes, finally sent the almost 200pcs for developing and I got them all today! Hurray :D
